Unextending Harris Bipod legs-!!!!!!

I got a 1A2H Harris bipod today. I have one question about this bipod---i had no trouble extending the legs, but how on earth do you "de-extend" the legs so they are 13" long instead of 23"? The instructions only say how to extend the legs, and not how to "unextend" the legs. There are two little round metal dials on the bipod, one on each leg, and I can only turn these like 10 degrees, and in every position they are in, I can't unextend the legs? Any help/advice? Thanks
 
I'm not sure what model of Harris I have, but the M.O. should be the same:
Turn the "dials" counter-clockwise as far as they will go. This will release tension, and allow the legs to go up(they are used to lock the legs into place). Then right above each dial, there is a tab(if you look at the side view, you will see the tab rests on a button). Push the tab, and the legs should spring shut.

When you extend the legs, turn the dials clockwise to put tension on the legs, and preclude the possibility of them going back into the tubes.
