JT Strongarm Setup Procedure

I am confused somewhat by the instructions that came with the JT Strongarms. I don't remember the exact wording (instructions are in the 5er), but it went something like this,
-Adjust so that front of 5er is something like and inch or so lower than the back.
-Lower the rear stabilizers and tighten the T handles.
-Raise the front of the 5er to level. (That would also put pressure on the rear stabilizers.)
-Tighten the front T handles.
-"bump" the front of the 5er up to take out the slack in the stabilizers.
That last step seems wrong. That would put down pressure (or compression) on the rear stabilizers and up pressure (or extension) on the front stabilizers. It would seem you would want to "bump" the front of the 5er down to have down pressure (compression) on both the front and rear stabilizers.
Am I missing something? Does it work as described?
