Default ABU baitcasters.

Several years ago I inherited two ABU
baitcasting reels from a dearly missed
fishing buddy. One is a 5000 Ambassador
and the other is a 5500C. I have taken
on myself to learn to use them and have
read the ROFB.NET FAQ on the elements
of beginning baitcasting. Every thing is clear
except for one item. In the instructions it says
to adjust the spool tension to where the lure
you are using just begins to drop down. It then
says to then ' turn the magnets all the way up'.
I am assuming the magnet adjustment knob is the
one on the left side and that to 'turn it all the way
up' means to turn it until its snug against the faceplate.
Am I interpreting this correctly? Thanks for any tips
or techniques you might have.
Mike
