Gently is the key word here - there is no need to "baby" them closed. In fact, guns with pawl-type rotary bolts that key through the opening in the extended rib (LC Smith, Fox, etc.) are better served by firm closing - not slamming them shut, but allowing the bolt to go home without impeding it in any way. Full travel of the bolt in this situation prevents undue/premature wear through insufficient surface contact of the bearing surfaces.
