"A" and "B" are both bearing surfaces for the torsion bar. When the adjusting bolt is turned clockwise, it pushes "up" on "A" and changes the angle between "A" and "B". Thereby increasing the tension on the torsion bar.
I think that if I were to do what you may be suggesting, I might remove the torsion bar and run the proper size drill bit up from "B" and though "A" and run the drill (or round file in a drill motor) back and forth with the pressure mostly on "A" That way you would have a better chance of getting the adjustment that you want and maintain a proper bearing surface ("bearing" meaning load bearing) and not risk gouging the torsion bar at "B". If that's even an issue...... It's not like the torsion bar is stressed on a daily basis.
Twas just a thought....... man, I have too much time on my hands. I better go out and fix something on my TM.... :-)
