Its a really easy job, you just have to watch that you dont go to far and end up flattening the bearings. Also depends on the lockring combination you have fitted but the basics are below

First you need to undo the pinch bolts on the top yoke holding the fork legs. Theres also one behind the steerer tube
Slacken the large capping nut
Tap the locking ring on top of the head bearing race to tighten it slightly. Rock the bike on the front break to check for bearing play. Adjust where needed
Tap the top yoke with a rubber mallet to seat it furhter down.
