Slide it into the center, use a screwdriver etc and prise it over, turn engine around abit etc, be careful not to damage belt though. Turn the engine over by hand 2 times and if its come back check the tensioner and guide

Also make sure the block face is thoroughly cleaned before bolting on idler and tensioner to ensure that they sit perfectly flat against the block.
