Get a brake adjusting tool. It has an end like a screwdriver (but wider) and the shaft is bent over about 35°. If the angle is not right for your specific application, then heat the tool and bend it to where it does work.
The tool can usually be had for less than $10.

Special tool #27257
Hi Hanno
I agree with Rob you need a brake adjustment spoon tool. I made mine which I will photograph and post. There is an issue of clearance to the springs. The things to remember is which direction you need to move the tool back off each end of the cylinder. Cheers Phil

Thanks, that makes perfect sense but I didn’t know it existed. My ‘65 VW used the same adjustment system, but there a screwdriver did the job.
A Dutch friend has stepped forward, I can borrow his tool. To be continued! Hanno

Thanks Phil,
Did you make this yourself or is this an off the shelf tool? Just tried my friends home made tool - sadly that didn’t work... Hanno

Can you fit a drift in the hole then hit that with a mallet? It might get things moving. It sounds like you are due for some replacement parts.
