Help understanding belt run-in

I just picked up my first ever 2-stage thrower - a simple Ariens Compact 24 (B&S). The nearest place to get one was HD and the assembly went very well. I'm having a bit of trouble understanding exactly what the belt run-in adjustment process is. I see from the manual that I am suppose to run it for 15 minutes with the auger engaged, but I'm a bit unclear on exactly what I am then suppose to check and adjust.
Is there a good link that explains the process in a bit more detail than the manual? Things like what it should look/feel like when properly adjusted, symptoms if not adjusted right etc.
Thanks!
P.S. - Spent a lot of time lurking here as I decided what to buy - great forum!
