Trailblazer EXT A/C Charge help?

I have a 2003 Chevy Trailblazer.  My A/C has been reclaimed and is empty.  I have a vacuum pump and the proper R-134a Gauge tree.  The only problem is that I lack the experience in doing this.  How dow I properly charge my system? I tried this last month and over charged it.  I need to know if I am suppose to conduct a vacuum on both the high and low side at the same time and what pressures I am looking for.

Thank you for your help.

Dave

Most evacuates/reclaimers for a/c 134A is connected to the low side only, and pulls only 30psi.
