Default question about timing belt

well i am finishing up my turbo install and i am putting my timing belt back on and i did it the same way it said to do in my haynes, "put it on, turn it counterclockwise three teeth, tighten tensioner and turn clockwise two revoltions and check" i did this and yes it gets tight but once i start turning it clockwise it goes loose then tight and so on. anyone have any suggesstions?
