How much torque to put on the belt tensioner?

I am replacing the timing belt on my wife's 1990 Suzuki Swift Gl Sedan. It has a 1.3 liter single overhead cam. I know how to lign up the cam and crankshaft but am not sure how much torque to put on the belt tensioner. Thanks in advance.

40 nm should be ample with a drop of thead lock.
