Get a medium length screwdriver, with a flat blade and bend it about an inch from then end.
The mechanism through the hole is toothed, you need to nudge them up or down dependant on side, I can't remember which way per side though, sorry.
When you have the discs off, you can adjust it from the outer side, few clicks, try disc etc, until the disc slides on snugly but smoothly.
I should have said this earlier, sorry.
Be wary of braying the disc off as you may damage some of the handbrake mechanism.
