Replace Vote up / Vote down text with icons

Hi,

I followed the link to the codepen css/html customization example, customized and dropped in the code to my child theme css. The new icons show up, but they are overlaying the text links for Vote Up/Vote Down: https://www.screencast.com/t/xCLNrfMpzp

I saw this in the same topic that was resolved:
“If you need to customize links more deeply, you can apply filters on these hooks (see bbpvotes-template.php)”

….But I am not sure exactly how to apply filters to the hooks so the icons appear inline with the rest of the vote fuctions, and the text for Vote Up/Down is removed. Is there any way you can add an example of the hook filter in the php file that would accomplish the icon replace of the Vote up/down text (not a developer)?

Thanks so much in advance!
