I have been using the method described by Keith for several years now. That is, adjust the intake valve when the exhaust is just beginning to open and adjust the exhaust valve as the intake is just totally closed. This way you are sure that the cam is at it lowest point. Trying to adjust both valves on the same cylinder at the same time, at/close to TDC, can yield bad results if you off TDC by a little bit.
