How do you get self-adjusting brakes to adjust?
Look at the back of the push rod to find the adjustment nut. Turn the adjustment nut in the direction that you can turn it freely. The adjustment will turn freely in only one direction and will ratchet in the other. Turn the nut until the brake shoes are against the drum and the nut will not turn any more.
