Belt tensioner 99 Mustang

I have a V6 and the belt tensioner no longer works. I see there is a star nut that holds it in place. Is there anything I should know before I remove this. Is it under some pressure or tension still. Is it safe to just remove it or not. I would like to avoid any injury or become an example of what not to do.

Thanks for any pointers.
