Go clock wise on the knob on the hand brake to tighten. If the handle is stuck or maxed of threads follow the cable to the drum brake on the driveline and tigthen the cable there-easy as pie Make sure you have a decent amount of friction material on your shoes as you have 20,000lbs relying just on this setup when the truck is running and in neutral.
