The steering pump should have an adjustable bolt arrangement in much the same way an alternator does, usually involves slackening a pinch bolt and winding in a tensioner bolt, then retightening the pinch bolt. Get a look at a Haynes manual or similar.

Try tightening the belt. P/s belts have to be surprisingly tight for them not to slip when they get wet. Maybe some undershields are missing. Mike.
