Automatic adjusters are used, change your rear shoes and pump the brake which will adjust them. Turn the adjuster with your fingers as you refit the shoes to take up the slack. It you cant then clean the adjuster screw thread.
Note that if the h/brake cable has been adjusted up then its wiser to slacken off the cable adjuster before fitting the shoes. If done properly then the h/brake cable should not need adjusted but the adjuster for the cable is at the h/brake lever. :thumbsup:
