Nope its self adjusting. Only thing you can do is put it in first (car off) and tug on the clutch pedal upwards. Its a self adjusting quadrant

Why are you trying to adjust it. Is it a replacement clutch ? Is it sliping ?

I believe the self adjuster is only to take up cable slack but it is adjusted first at the factory.

I'm not 100% sure but U should be able to adjust it just make sure its not just worn.

There is a rubber nut thing on the cable where it goes into the firewall. I have seen people turn it to give or take up the slack. This is similat to adjusting the hand brakes on a bike[8D]
