See Quasi's page (http://www.quasimotors.gar.net). He describes a tool to hold it compressed. It's just a piece of steel with two bolts through it. A quick trip to the hardware store, and about 15 minutes to make (cut to size, drill two holes).
Don't skimp on the steel. Make it THICK, and use big bolts. The spring tension on the tensioner is surprisingly strong. That's why I like using the holding tool. I don't want anything slipping off when my fingers are in there. Call me timid, but I don't use any of the manual methods of holding the tensioner compressed (pliers, wrench) while working on the belt.
