So, by turning the nut like your tightening it, therefore compressing the spring more, that will make more a better ride? I ride mostly single. Weigh about 250 Lbs.

First you loosen the lock nut then turn the adjusting nut clockwise to increase the tension on the spring,better ride.Make sure to retighten the lock nut.
