Reducing the slack on the cueing lever of a REGA RB900 tonearm

My Rega RB900 has suddenly developed quite a bit of slack on the cueing lever.  So much so that it is starting to put an unwanted lateral shift when raising /lowering it, which could be disastrous (it could miss the mark upon lowering, of lift not quite vertically on uplift, causing groove damage).  Does anyone know how to tighten the cueing lever?  Is this adjustment only accessed from below (meaning I'd need to remove it from the turntable)...It's currently mounted on a Basis 2000.  Thanks!

Also if the arm is moving to the side.. clean the pad on the cueing arm so it is again stickier than slippery. Also you antiskate may be set too high.
And the first answer is all good. You can adjust the lift so it holds the arm up and lowers it just right.I own a Rega P5. and all Rega arms a similar.
