Answer:

Really too complicated to answer here, better visit www.bicycletutor.com, www.parktool.com or www.sheldonbrown.com. But basically you loosen the spokes on the side you want to move the rim from, and tighten the spokes on the side you want the rim closer to. In reality there's a lot more to it, you have to watch out for roundness, spoke tension and wheel dish.
