Help: Majesty issue: Switched to a lighter string gauge, need help

Hey guys,

I have an urgent issue that I need help with, since I am not a tech savvy person by any means. I recently decided to experiment with an ultra light gauge of strings (7’s) on my Majesty Artisan 6-string. As I was restringing and got from the high E to the D, I noticed that my tremolo had dipped WAY into the body (it used to be flush).

I remember JP’s tech telling me on the Petrucci forum a while back that anytime you switch string gauges, the tremolo spring tension needs to be adjusted. I can not remember for the life of me whether I’m supposed to turn the screws clockwise or counter-clockwise to get the bridge flush with the body again. Can anybody help me?
