Altitude adjustment on Losmandy G11

Hi Guys - Quick question for Losmandy G11 owners out there. The G11 manual states that to make altitude adjustments:

1. Locate the altitude adjustment knob - directly below the counterweight shaft.
2. Turn the altitude adjustment knob until the mount is at the right elevation. Each complete revolution of the knob raises or lowers the polar axis 3.2°.

My question is do I need to losen the Altitude Clamp Bolts when making the adjustment and tighten afterwards? Or do I just leave it as it?

Please help
