Adjusting And Cleaning Rear Drum Brakes Procedure
Use a small screw driver to adjust the adjusting start wheel. It will only turn one way, because of a stop mechanism. If it does not turn one way, turn it the other way to adjust the rear shoes outward, which brings them closer to the inside of the drum surface for better stopping power.
