Hi Bob

1) Jack up one wheel at a time, so you can spin the tire.
2) take the rubber inspection cover off the center bottom of
the backing plate. it if about 1/2" by 1 1/4 " in size.
3) There is a little Star wheel inside the brake drum,
take a flat screwdriver and pry up the star wheel until the tire
will (just) not turn.
4) after the tire will not turn you need to pry down on the star wheel
a few clicks ( 2 or 4 clicks ) until the tire spins free.
Now the Brake shoes should just be short of contact to the drum.
5) put the dust capo back in.
6) let the wheel back down and do the same to the rest of the wheels.

oh by the the way, make sure you block up the axle well before lying under the
trailer. You don't want to just trust the jack.

Take Care
J & D
