Take one string loop off and give it a few twists. When you take the string off and looking at the end you want to turn it counter clockwise.

On my Equinox i have the string set for about 1/8 to 1/16" gap to the S5s. This gives me a BH of 1 & 1/16" to the forward edge of the string. My sons have a Vortex & Axiom SMF set with the same BH & they do not have the S5s. All 3 CBs are very accurate with this setting which works for us.
