It's an easy taske. Start the motor up and let it idle, on top of the gear box is a black rubber boot. Pull it off and under it is what looks like a double nut with a screw. loosen the lower nut against the case a couple of turns and the cam tension will automatically set, then just retighten the lower nut and put the black boot back on. If your chain slapped around like mine did you'll notice the noise go away very easily.
FYI do not try and undo the top nut from the threads...... just the lower one.
