u can tighten them by removing the rear wheels and then there is a metal cap in the cntre of the brake drum remove this by prying off using a cpl of screwdrivers under the ridgethen when thats off remove the split pin and tighten the castle nut wiv(i think a 22 or 24mm) socket tighten it up till it is free to turn the drum but wivout ne play

as above, but get a flat screwdriver and move the washer behind the nut, if the washer wont move its too tight, if its barely moving then its about right
