Standard for shoe/drum setups are to have the self adjusters do so going in REVERSE...........
Maybe so, but from Lippert web site:
Forward Self-Adjusting Brakes self-adjust during every forward stop, providing up to 50 percent better braking distance and preventing premature brake line and magnet wear.
Automotive drum self adjusting did their adjustments when braking & backing up
Trailer electric drum self adjusting do their adjustments when braking & going forward due to magnet brake shoe engagement lever movement. (Lippert & Dexter)
ON EDIT:
PER DEXTER
Dexter electric brakes may be equipped with a forward self-adjust
feature. This will allow the brakes to adjust on both forward and
reverse stops........forward and REVERSE I stand corrected
