Did you loosen the bottom bolt on the adjustment arm?

Seeking the collective wisdom.  When I installed the generator on my newly 
rebuilt engine last December it was a tight fit.  Fine, I thought.  After 1,500 
or so miles, Saturday the generator light comes on.  Upon inspection, the belt 
is intact, but I can turn the generator pulley by hand and the belt has too 
much play.  No problem, just tighten it up.  Wrong.  With all my strength I 
can?t get the generator to do more than barely wiggle with the mounting bolts 
fully slackened.  Thoughts on the best way to free up the generator?s up/down 
movement?  I?ll probably need to file down the ears a bit to make for an easier 
fit.
