Default whinning after t belt replaced

so just replaced the timing belt the oter day now it has a whinning noise around 1800-2500 rpm i am thinking it is the timing belt to tight but i am kinda confused on how to adjust it. i know there is a bolt that sticks out from the cover but idk what to do with that loosen it then tightin it or what.

yes, it sounds like the timing belt is too tight.

To adjust the timing belt tension, first position piston No.1 at TDC. Then loosen the adjusting nut 2/3-1 turn, rotate the crankshaft counterclockwise 3-TEETH on the CAMSHAFT and retighten the adjusting nut.

Mine started doing this too.

I suspected that it was the Tbelt but how would it tighten itself??

It just started a few weeks ago but i changed the belt in july.
