No. The brakes are adjusted thru the backing plate, usually by turning the
square thingy (technical term). The hole in the drum is an inspection hole
for checking the brake linings without removing the drum. Use a flashlight
in America, a torch in the UK. (If you use a torch in America, you will melt
the rubber plugs. :-)
