Belt Tension

Looking for advice, I just purchased a 10 lb belt tensioning device (spring loaded) and tensioned the belt like the manual suggests, Place the bike on a center stand and allowed the rear wheel to hang, adjusted the belt to where it had between .285-.350 deflection, about the width of the belt.
It feels tight, am I missing something? or is it supposed to feel that tight.

Thanks
