You have to loosen the big nut first. Then use screwdriver to adjust length, then re-tighten the nut to lock it in place.

That latch has to be positioned correctly. If you install it incorrectly and shut the lid it will jam and be almost impossible to get it open. It has a slight angle to it that needs to face forward.
