Lucy, just pass the cable through the top adjuster & clamp it with the bolt on the bottom.

If you need a photo, I can post one  :daumenhoch:

No problem  :daumenhoch:  What version is it?  We use Oracle at our place.  Do you do a lot of data mining?

Just to add a bit of on topic help, you can't beat having someone to lend a third hand when tensioning brakes (or a brake tensioning tool but borrowing me dad is cheaper for me )  ;)
