How do you go about adjusting the carburetor on a 1972 65 HP Johnson with 3 carbs?

Re: '72 Johnson 65 HP carburetor adjustment

More specifically, I just rebuilt all 3 carburetors but have no idea how to set the slow idle mixture adjustment screws on each carb. I've been playing around with it and once in a while can get it to idle roughly and when it does start it idles way high. I'm changing the spark plugs soon as they may be part of the problem but I'm sure the carbs need adjusting too. Thanks for any help.
