You need to slacken everything off - yoke pinch bolts mainly, and ideally the front axle and anything else that goes between the fork legs. Then straighten.

Helps if you can raise the front of the bike, take the weight off the forks so they don't slip up in the yokes.

Watch this here, explains it all https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vSunBRB6-r8

Don't loosen the top pinch bolts.

You can if you support the front of the bike. If he watches the video (unlikely) it explains it quite well.
