Resources for tuning/adjusting bongos properly?

Heyo,

I have a lot of experience with drum kit stuff/bootlegging/adjusting whatever, BUT! I don't have much experience with certain hand drums. I have a nice little set of Toca bongos that were a floor model, and they're clearly set up slightly weird, like they're very wobbly and the little feet end at all different heights which is making me crazy. I've played around making adjustments with the center connector part between the two drums, but haven't tuned otherwise. If you have any advice about what order to do things in or a good video, please share. I mean, I imagine that I should pretty much detune, start fresh, and make sure to do it evenly around so that the little feet end up the same height, but I've just never done it before so don't wanna miss a step. Thanks all.
