Post Handbrake Loose

Hi,
Could any of you tell me how easy is it to adjust the handbrake on 2003 Yaris. When I first pull up the handbrake it doesn’t hold the car sufficiently and if on a slight incline it begins to roll. I have to then pull the handbrake up to it’s highest possible point to have any effect. Is it possible to tighten the handbrake.
Thanks for any advice
Roth

There's the bolt under the handbrake lever, you should see it connect to a steel wire ... If I'm not mistaken, u should tighten it clockwise ... And test it afterwards ..
