From the backer plate adjustment hole, the star wheel should be rotated up. If you have self adjusting shoes, it sometimes helps to push the adjustment lever towards the exterior so the star wheel turns easier.
I typically adjust the trailer brakes following bearing service. While I have the drum off, I can clean and lube the brake parts so adjustment and operation are good.
