Is it me or can that rear hub be a pain to get off. I quit trying... I will have to give it another go next weekend. It got loose but it seemed to catch on the brake pad I am assuming

Default adjusting front brake pads on 1997 honda fourtrax trx 300 4x4

hey my fourtrax has two wing nuts on the back that will adjust the back brake pads but I cant find anything to adjust the front hydraulic brakes. I was just wondering how I would be able to tighten the front brake pads they have worn down from mudding and so they have stopped working I know they have a lot of pad on them because I just replaced the brake pads last year. if anyone could help me that would be awesome!

If its like my old 2000 450 Honda Foreman with hydraulic front drum brakes. There is a red plug you pull out on the front rim. Then you used a flat head screw driver to turn a spur wheel that adjusts the clearance of the brake shoe to the drum wall.
