Twist the cotter pin to tighten the bands.....I just threw mine in the trash and replaced with a large hose clamp. Total pain in the ass part but I have to admit it looked cool.

Stainless steel hose clamp from the hardware store. Less hassle.

Agree with others.... I used the cotter-pin style original one and it was a pain to get it to stay on... and honestly, I check it everytime I'm under my 914 worried it will have fallen off, so i can replace with a worming clamp style.

That's the easiest, but if it's been completey taken apart it may be less easy to understand how it goes back on.
