Default Woodward RPM adjustment

I have a woodward governor and would like to adjust the high RPM stop screw. I can't find directions, but I was hoping that the Woodward folks designed it so there would be a certain number of screw turns associated with a certain number of RPM, so that I wouldn't have to stab in the dark. Does anyone know if there is a relationship, or does anyone remember the results of making an adjustment in the past?

Expect about 25 RPM per screw revolution.
