Sorry I'm a bit mixed up here. It's all the way in since the pads are like new. When the pads get worn down, I will loosen the barrel adjuster to bring the pads closer. That all seems right, why would I need to do anything with the adjuster?
I just check it by sight.
I like my adjuster to start near the middle so I can adjust it either way, but if you like it all the way in, no worries. I am really anal about where the pads are and I adjust them often.
