I need a quick tip. Which way to turn the star adjuster to expand the shoes? Thanks.

Against the detent if you can move the wheel in a direction, it needs to go the opposite, and you would need to use a small screwdriver to allow the wheel to move while you hold the detent out of the way...... follow? make it so you cant get the rotor on.... then back it off two or three clicks... (ET's directions)
