Ron is right, you can do a few at a time. Going up forces you to do more than one at a time because you are raising the socket screws against the plate whose stiffness will provide resistance to raising the screw. Going down you can lower each screw as you go by, say, 1/4 turn or whatever and the plate will flex only when you tighten down the acorn nuts. As Ron said, just do it incrementally.
