PS. If you wind both sides all the way back then the parking brake should adjust itself as you pump the hydraulic system up.
That's the one!

Only if the handbrake cable is completely slackened before removing the pads and only adjusted with feeler gauges after both sides have auto-adjusted using the footbrake as you describe Alan. It's the vital step almost everybody misses out and causes the "rings of doom" on the rear disc - next stage is rear caliper failure!
