Handbrake adjustment

Quote "Parking brake adjustment.....13-19 clicks"

This seems a little high, anyone got any comments?

I would skacken the cable off and adjust the drums first,and then adjust the cable once that is done.

That's fair enough but adjusting the cable to "13-19 clicks" still seems a large amount of travel. Anyone know how many teeth there are on the ratchet?

Loads, more than a normal type handbrake. I'd not worry to much, as long as the shoes arn't dragging when its off, it'll be OK.
