Is there suppose to be a link?
No link.
The Russian way is to slacken off the tensioner slightly then cut the old timing belt in half along it's length, remove the outer half then slide the new belt on, once the new belt is half way on, cut the rest of the old belt off, slide the new belt all the way on and retighten the tensioner, job done, no need for cam locking tools or any special equipment.

Never heard of that and tbh I don't think it's something I'd adopt on such an important job going by the way it sounds.. lol

Sounds clever.

I tried that once, it hurt!!!!
Ones u alighn the marks before removing old one if u not a numpty u just paint mark al pulleys and fit a new one on.Iwouldn`t use that metod anyway.
have seen this method used on a vaux v6 vectra
worked well to be fair but of course no bearings on anything were checked as all ways had a belt on them
not a method i would use to be fair

its not broke its airing its diff!

Ive seen it done that way before, But tbh think it's better done the right way, dont forget the Hydrolic tension can become weak, also the idler's etc can become worn and seize.
Better to replace with a Good oem kit to be on the safe side.

I wouldn't use this method on the Volvo, as our cars are a piece of pi$$ to do anyway

Never heard of it before but I suppose it is down to a personal choice really.
Do people know the way of changing it with out taking the bottom pully off
