No backing out. Just screw down both limbs until they can be screwed in anymore. Maxed out.

I like a little room to move. I like to put on a bow scale, and have the cables tightened until I can reach 70lbs (for 70lb limbs), and be able to back out a tad. Maybe 1/2turn at most.

I prefer to back out 1/4 turn after Max, but yeah just turn the limb bolts clockwise until you can't go any further.
