Hey Robert, thanks for reaching out. Since these are Dexter Nev-R-Adjust brakes, they will automatically keep themselves adjusted during normal use, but Dexter still recommends performing an initial adjustment after installation. You can manually adjust them through the backing plate using a flat-blade screwdriver. Turn the star wheel until you feel a firm drag when rotating the drum by hand. You should be able to turn the hub by hand, but it shouldn't spin freely.
Just be careful manually... view full answer...
