That comes true as left cam is turned slightly CCW 'feeding all slack' for the roller - maybe the cold weather gives the spring more stamina?
Whatever is done, even confuzean coreography jazz by FSM, the end result is what counts: check the belt tighness as specified by FSM - 10kpm force on mid belt causes 12mm (or even half inch) travel downward.
If this check is ok, doesnt matter how that point was reached. What matters is if u recheck the tightness, also later near end of belt lifetime...
