This can be done by using the Remove method and configure it like this:
Remove count: 4
Starting at: +
Backwards: Unchecked
Use regular expressions: Unchecked

This removed 4 chars after the first + found in the filename. It does not remove the + itself. If you also want to remove the + sign you can use the replace method or remove by pattern method.
