Also, I wouldn't recommend trying to adjust the arm if it's rusted up pretty good unless you want to diy a new arm--been there.
This is the only image I have handy. The wastegate actuator is in the lower left. You can see that the rod is threaded near the end and has a lock nut and ferrule screwed on. Like 900Aero said, loosen the lock nut and turn the ferrule to shorten the rod length. Be sure to tighten the lock nut back down. The ferrule is held on the wastegate swing valve arm with either a retaining pin or twisted wire. You'll have to unhook that first to turn the ferrule and shorten the arm.
