I'm sure they have a rubber bung on the rear brake guard, take that out and there should be a cog sort of thing. Turn it to adjust handbrake. I could be wrong like but thats what I did on blue wagon.

Might be the same bud, look behind the brake guard as it easy to see, see if there is a rubber bung sort of thing.
