I know what the book says but I always recommend 13 degrees of up and 4 or 
5 down. You need the up with a monowheel to achieve a decent amount of down 
pressure on the tail wheel during landing roll out. This is the most likely 
reason for loss of yaw control on the ground, usually as the speed drops to 
15 kts or so and the rudder is less effective.
