A method of increasing it one small step at a time until it just doesn't, or only rarely slips, is the best IMHO. Once you arrive at a good setting, you can use one of these to easily reset each of the springs to the same place.

Measuring the springs is ok but that does not take into account springs that have lost tension or clutch disks that have worn thinner thus reducing tension also.
Running the machine and checking the clutch for heat or lack of it is the only way to zero in on the best setting for a particular HP tractor.
If the clutch is set up for a 50hp tractor and is then installing I on a 30hp tractor a reset is absolutely needed to protect the lower hp tractor.
