Adjuster nut just behind the handbrake lever.

Is that the one listed a part 3, the lowest bolt in the pic?

Yup, to make the cable shorter i.e. so you don’t need to pull up the handbrake as much, you tighten nut 2 onto thread 3

I can take a pic of the actual bit tomorrow if you like?

Draco

if ya could that would be great...
thanks

Here you go, tighten the nut to shorten the cable.
