1969 C10 rear brake adjuster

[REDROCKER652002]

My son had torn into the rear brakes, due to a leak in the cylinder. He bought new shoes and all the springs and all. He has everything on correctly that I can tell, but the adjuster star on the passenger side seems to be spinning to wrong way for the shoes to adjust. So, my question, simple and stupid as it may be, what direction should the star spin for the shoes to adjust outward towards the drum? It has has been way too long for me and I be damned if I can remember He is really stressed, so I am asking in the hopes I can kinda push him in the right direction. RR
