I know this is an old post, but as it will help others when they need it.
The cables can be adjusted from inside the camper at the rear . You will need to remove the cover/step to the bed (boxed in section on the floor). Depending on the current roof position you may need to remove the covers in the cupboards. Once the cables are exposed you will see a plate with 5 cables attached one going to the winch and 4 other going in the oppsite direction. These 4 cables will have bolts on the end of them with locking nuts. Loosen the locking nuts and adjust as required. Retighten locking nuts and check heights. Adjust roof in the full hieght position. Wind roof down and back up, then recheck roof. Repeat if required.
I would reccommend you prop up the roof as a precaution as you're working within the camper.
I found this out as a result of a cable snapping when winching the roof up. If this happen and you can't obtain replacement cables, you can do as I did and buy new cable the same gauge from a boat chandler and some 'u' clamps for the ends. Just make sure the cable is flexiable enough for use (that you can coil the cable around your finger with ease).
