It's very possible your assemblies are activating like they are supposed to but the adjustment of the assemblies needs to be tightened so that the brakes will activate like they need to. This is a very common issue actually.
You will adjust the brakes using that wheel until there is a slight but constant drag of the shoe pads on the drum. I have included a link to a video and at about the 4:39 mark our installed begins adjusting the brakes.
