I just got one for my Harley. Don't know if they are the same but here goes.
Remove old tensioner.
Turn over hydraulic tensioner and add oil to ports until it is full.
Install new with thinner shoe edge to the front.
Install hydraulic piece with relief port to the front.
Pull up until chain shows no slack
raise 1/16th inch more then tighten down.
Install cover and oil.
