Hello all

I am having difficulty adjusting my SV handbrake.  I have taken all the
adjustment out of the threaded rod at the end of the cable, and adjusted the
shoes so they drag slightly on the drums, about as far as I care to take them.
The brake sets, but not as securely as I would like.  With the rear wheels
jacked up, I can turn them with some difficulty.  Are there any other points
of adjustment I should be aware of?

Thanks in advance,

Bill
