its a long time since I did one - but I believe they are simliar to the alfetta/75 rear brakes. This way always worked for me :

If the handbrake is not pulling it may be just too tight and so you are not getting the leverage. Slacken off the handbrake and check that you can lock the caliper manually with the lever. If you can't then reset the pads by adjusting the caliper pistons one at a time. If the brake still won't lock you may have a dud caliper. Otherwise re-attach the cable and adjust slowly adjust until you eliminate the free travel. I'll have alookat home if I avethe real workshop manual but it will be the weekend.
