If it had a fixed position, it wouldn't need to have an elliptical screw. You have to find the proper position for you gearbox. In fact, there's no need to dissasemble the selector when you open the cases, but if you did it so, you'll have to make some tests with several positions until you find every gear is properly engaged when shifting upwards and downwards.

I cannot get a close enough view. Are you sure there is not a centering mark on both the cam and lever. Seems thier was on my 200.
