Turning it one way or the other will change the release point of your clutch by tightening or loosening the clutch cable tension. Just play withadjuster and clutchpedaluntil you find a comfortable release point. I have set mine so that it releases in the middle of the pedal for everyday driving. If i am going to the track, just a few turns will set the clutch to release high on the pedal.

actually the opposite becaue turning it to the left pushes the cable back towards the bellhousing and it makes it tighter for some odd reason. while turning it to the right loosens the cable.
