readjusts
Fixes the fit
Readjusts means to adjust again or make a fresh adjustment.
Someone readjusts their grip on a steering wheel, readjusts to civilian life after military service, or readjusts their expectations after disappointment.
The word implies a previous state that needs correction or a new situation requiring adaptation: She readjusted her glasses and continued reading.
