shoes are always primary shoes, self-energizing in
either direction of drum rotation. Brake anchor supports,
bolted to the axle housing flange in conjunction with the
flange plate, have removable slotted anchor pins at the
shoe heels and adjusting screws at the shoe toes which
act as anchors in the reverse direction of rotation. Each
adjusting screw is threaded into or out of its support by
means of an adjusting wheel. Brakes are accessible for
adjustment through adjusting slots in the flange plate.
