Generator belt adjusting

I got a 12v genny from an MD. I swapped the belt pulley. I also got a new generator mount because the one that came off my tractor was drilled out... I'm assuming to move the generator forward. So, with the new genny, and the new bracket, with the old pulley... It's too far back. (see first pic below, you can see the second pulley below. It's out of focus, but it should show you how the belt line is off). The pulley seems to tighten on, and that's it. I don't see a way to adjust it out farther.

The only adjustment I see is the bolt and screw that allow you to adjust the width of the rear pulley guide. (see second pic)

So, I'm clueless on how to get this thing pulled forward. I'm assuming the two pulleys are supposed to be completly in line?

As Owen said, take the bracket off and turn it end for end. The bolt holes in the bracket are not centered.
