My instructions said not to mess with the adjustment turnbuckles. It was pre-set from the factory.

I would guess just snug. But I think I would call them and ask.

It's supposed to be a "neutral" adjustment, no pressure either way.

Ditto on neutral. Loosen the jam nuts, adjust the center nut left till you feel resistance, then right till you fill resistance, then set it in the middle of the the two.
