I recently purchased a ‘35 Ford Sedan which has Floata Brakes on it. Does anyone have instructions for adjusting these floaters?

It’s a bendix type star adjuster actuated with a brake spoon. Alan

Adj to tighten so the wheel can not be turned by hand, then adjust to loosen so there is slight drag counting the number of teeth moved. adj each wheel in the same way with equal amount of teeth moved to loosen as the first wheel. Test drive. If not enough brake pedal readjust each wheel a couple of teeth tighter.

This may be the same or similar. I have them on my'35 Fordor and they work great.
