My Feedback: (4)
I think yours is more a question of Angle Of Attack (AOA) rather than Incidence. As long as the wing is close to level, you'll be fine.
I won't get into the sordid details, but some say the wing should sit with a slight negative AOA. Your manual (And I) believe it should sit with a slight Positive AOA.
Bottom line... Don't lose any sleep over it.
