Lube the hub first with some oil, then adjust the cable. The link should have info on both, about half way down the page.
Bought this 1960's AMF Hercules for $5 at a garage sale over 10 years ago. A couple of drops of oil in the hub and it was, and still is, good to go. These bikes are virtually indestructible unless in a collision, and it shouldn't take much to make it road worthy.
