The hand brake shoes in THEORY should rarely, if ever need adjusting. They only tend to wear if you're doing a LOT of hand brakies, or driving around with the hand brake on a tad (which is unlikely unless you're deaf & blind!).
However the possibility for the cable to s t r e t c h over time is very real, and this is where you pop your hand brake handle cover off, and adjust the revealed nut(s) on the end of the cable.
