    You should be able to turn the adjustment screw by hand.

    DO NOT USE A WRENCH!

    You will screw up the "PLASTIC" clutch cable adjustment nut.

    There is a rubber nipple at the bottom of the that adjustment nut that you just push down with your thumb/finger and turn the adjustment nut with your hand.

    You should only have about 1/4" play in the clutch arm.

    i had to adjust mine too. it's a bit tight to reach, but no wrench should be needed. last resort- use pliers. that might work.
