The e-brake on these cars is a special patented system and isn't like "normal" brakes: http://www.pbr.com.au/technology/parkbrakes.shtml The e-brake uses a drum system, but unlike "normal" drums, it doesn't have a self-adjusting mechanism. It also can't be adjusted on the cables. These... require getting dirty. (It will probably take you a couple of hours for your first time. It requires taking the wheel/tire, brake caliper, and rotor completely off to do the adjustments.)
