Sorry what I meant was once they are locked on by turning the Allen bolt is there a rule on how much you then back it off

Back about 1/4 of a turn, so the disc, just runs free.
Do both sides, so both have about the same resistance.
Then you may have to ‘reduce’ the No. of clicks on the handbrake, by tightening the adjuster, under the cover over the handbrake lever.
