there is a locking nut on it. loosen it, and move the nut along the screw thread until it suits you!

its just a matter of playing around with it, till you get it the way you like!

im not 100% happy with mine yet!

i THINK the tighter you have it, the more rear braking is done, and the more slack the less rear braking effort!

move the lever towards the front of the car for more braking bias and towards back for less.

Best to test it in the wet down a hill, just be ready to get off teh brakes if teh back end starts kicking round
