Tension pulley

I have replaced the alternator and I am going to replace the belt and tension pulley. My tension pulley has a hydraulic arm attached. I am having a crazy time finding anything about this hydraulic arm. I would like to test this arm, does anybody have experience with this arm?

Here's my post from when I replaced mine. It has detailed pictures and descriptions of how to replace everything: LINK - Belt tensioner idler pulley and belt shock
Also, if you go to the first page of that thread you will find a bunch of links to repairs I have done on my 2006 roadster with manual transmission.
