Here's Ross' video:

It's what I used when I did my brakes. He made it easy to understand how to adjust the eccentric and correctly seat the shoes with the drums. If the eccentric is off to one side or the other the shoes will be rubbing hard against the drum. Follow his directions and you'll get it done.

With the tire on you should be able to spin the wheel with one hand and hear the shoes slightly kissing the drum as the wheel spins on it's own.
