Default Front wheel bearing adjustment: how to

Folks,

Tried to re-adjust my Ford F15A front wheel bearings today, as per the manual, but somehow it did not work out as intended.

It states "tighten the nut until the wheel becomes hard to turn" but however hard I tightned it, the wheel kept easy to rotate. Am I missing something?

I expect to having to remove some shims as the bearing settles / wears out: is this correct?

Thanks in advance!

Hanno
