they are self adjusters every time you back up and stop they adjust up =========== Imagine little teethe that are going vertical (up/down). Pushing the teeth up/down will cause it to tighten or loosen. I always forgt which way it goes. Use a brake tool or a flat screwdriver to do this. The way they are supposed to work though is if you drive backward and stop and then forward and stop. Doing this a couple of times is supposed to adjust them autmatically. That is the way they are SUPPOSED to work anyway. Just adjust them until they drag the drum alittle bit. Wheel should only turn no more that 1/4 to 1/2 turn. Good luck.

To adjust rear brakes on an '04 Corsa, remove the cable on the mechanical linkage of the brakes. Then loosen the lever to be able to adjust the pivots. Tighten the lever and return the cable.?æ

The year, make and model vehicle would be helpful, but in any case take apart and do one side at a time so you have one complete assembly to refer to. If in doubt, purchase a shop repair manual for that vehicle for reference.
