Four notches in the adjuster in what they are probably referring to. I have done it by feel before but if you never done it before it may be hard for you to tell what is the right amount. Too tight is as bad as not tight enough. Someone here with more experience should be able to lead you thru the process.

So literally enough end play to where I can hear it moving but can't really see it moving, because if I can see it moving its prob too much right? Or if I do it see moving make sure it's not more then a C hair 😉 You want to feel it not hear it IMO.

These are the same type, tapered Timken roller bearings with inner and outer races) and brand as is in all the third members, those have a lot of preload put on them stock so make sure you do NOT have to MUCH end play

Clean it, if it's Dirty. Oil it, if it Squeaks.
But: Don't fix it, if it Works!
