The operation shown in this video guide is usually performed after replacing the same handbrake cable because it is broken, or simply to adjust it after slight loosening due to years of use of the vehicle. Let's move on to the description of the work: As you can easily see in the video, the cables have rope ends connected to a plate installed between the two cables mentioned earlier and the cable coming from the handbrake.

It is by adjusting these that you can give more or less tension to the cables, based on what is noticed at the time of the intervention.
