Location: Nova Scotia, Canada | Well, i gave it a whirl anyway and it went fine. What a difference it made in playability.
I did as I mentioned above, loosen the most rearward pair of neck bolts three turns each and just cracked the front two about a half turn. I then turned the tilt adjustment (1/4" Allan wrench) in until it was snug, tightened the neck bolts back up and voila, that part was done.
I had to then raise the bridge, which previously was adjusted all the way down, up about 1/4" to get the action to where I wanted it. But that was fine because as a nice bonus, the break angle across the bridge was greatly improved.
I still have to intonate and adjust the pickups to the new geometry but that's easy enough to do.
