There are three nuts holding the front idler bracket. If you loosen them off a couple of turns, it should allow the idler to slide back, loosening the track somewhat. There may also be a pawl (toothed bar) that you can tap upwards with a hammer after the nuts are loose to release the bracket. To tighten the track afterwards, you can put the "shepherd's crook", a track adjuster cam, or even a crow bar and block behind the horizintal bar attached to the bracket at the front of your hull, and tighten up the track, then tighten up the nuts.

Good luck! First time took me 35 mins per side...you get better at it.
