whats the trick to installing automatic belt tensioner on 1995 f150 351 engine?

I am trying to replace the tensioner on my truck but am having problems. One of the problems is the spring in the spring tensioner keeps popping off whenever i try to assemble the thing. Any tricks to resolving this? P.S. if you need to know the brand of the tensioner its, dayco "No slack" automatic belt tensioner. Don't know if that helps. I have the original one removed, its the new one I'm having problems with with installing it.

1. Just one bolt holds them in.. use the ratched to release the tension to remove the belt..the spring shouldn't come off, take it back and try another brand..
2. No
