Rear Brake Shoes - Adjustment

Hi folks,

 

Found out that the parking brake is only working on one side of the car. I took of the drums and all seems OK, good shoes and drums. I can see there is a longish lever which I believe is a wedge which provides the adjustment. I was hoping adjustment could be made somehow when the drum is in place. Or, is it a case of trial and error adjusting the wedge fitting the drum, taking it off and adjusting again etc.

 

Any suggestions appreciated.

It's the same as the Fabia, there is a guide in that section.
