Only used in summer, in the winter it is dormant. There is no tension system on it.

There is a tension system. The counterweight appears to be out of the photos, but there is a counterweight rope.

There is a counterweight rope but it is fixed on a concrete bloc on the ground, so no tension. I will get photos the next time I go there.
