I take it you didn't read my last reply then

That's why I was questioning how you would turn the top pulley by cranking the engine.

Glad you got it sorted. I don't know of way to incorporate a proper stretch belt fitting tool as they seem to require the ability to turn the pulley via a central bolt as per this video:

Having watched that, it reminded me that I was once advised to use an old credit card to slip the belt onto the pulley while turning it by hand....I'm going to guess Volvo have an official tool that isn't much more than a flat piece of plastic.
