I just turn off the pump, open a water valve in
the basement to let pressuree out, & put in a
tank of air - slowly - and close the water valve.
You can't really got 'too much' air - if you do, it
will bleed out. Usually if the tank is 1/2 air
when everything is working it is about right.

I'm sure there are better, more correct, ways to
do this and you will hear them here.

At any rate, do not over-pressurize the tank,
think about what you are doing!
