    I am trying to adjustment my handbrake, but I think the drum pads inside the rear rotor must worn out. I cannot find the screws to remove the rear rotors. Please help.

    You need to unscrew the two little "mounting"'prongs. Those are what hold the rotor to the hub.

    Here is a pic that shows one of the two alignment pins partially unscrewed. Remove both of them to remove the disc. You may need to use a dead blow mallet to tap on the back side of the disc to get it off. ;)

    I removed those two pins when I mount the Hill Engineer spacers. Is there a risk of the disk coming off withouth those two pins?

    The wheel bolt isnt bolted to the brake discs - it just passes through it then is bolted into the hub so no danger of that (its a bit like a sandwich with the disc as the filling)
