Need help with M brakes

I pulled apart my M to install new brake discs and seals, and also new differential bearings and races. I am now ready to bolt up the brake assembly to the rear housing. There are three sets of shims between the brake assembly and the rear housing. Could someone please tell me the procedure for setting this up?

John, thank you very much for taking the time to answer my question. Now I can get my M back together.

Here's a direct quote from the manual:
"Insert three cap screws in holes in power plate: add shims which total approximately .070- to .080-inch on threaded end of each cap screw. Place driven disk, with facings in position, on primary disk so that machined side of hub fits down into primary disk. Slip brake assembly into position and tighten to differential quill, checking at same time to be sure that enough shims have been added so that driven disk still rotates freely, If disk begins to drag, remove brake assembly and add shims until disk rotates freely when screws are tight. Use a feeler gauge to measure clearance between brake facing and quill. Shims must be added or removed until a clearance of .010- to .012-inch is obtained, when measured at each of the three cap screws. This assures a uniform clearance of .010- to .012-inch between driven disk and stationary friction surfaces (primary disk and differential quill) when brake is released. This clearance is necessary to prevent "dragging" brakes."
