Cajun bandit door never ceases to amaze

I bought my smoker used and it included a door and latch.  How do I adjust the latch so I don't have to beat on it to open?  Is it in the instructions?

You can adjust the position of the latch on how tight it makes contact with the smoker. I can't remember if you have to remove it from the door or not to adjust. It should be fairly self explanatory if you get it clean enough. The spring tension in the latch itself is not adjustable. Just how loose or tight the door engagement to the barrel is what's adjustable

Looking at a pic it looks like you loosen nut on one side of latch bar and tighten the other to move position of latch bar if that's the issue.
