Triplanar Problem

Dear All - I'm having an issue mounting my Triplanar VII on an Avid Acutus - Essentially, arm (when in armrest) sits very near rim of platter (1 inch from record cueing position)- I've checked geometry of Avid armboard/ Triplanar with jig and appears OK. It's a used example and Just returned from Joe at Discovery in Florida after a rewire - It's as though armrest in wrong position (but looks fine - if that makes sense!) I wanted a Triplanar to go with my Zyx Universe (sold SME V as accurate VTA adjustment almost impossible) Am I being an eejit and missing something simple? Does large bolt (or small grub screw underneath VTA tower) allow any lateral adjustments to move arm 3 inches laterally to a "normal" resting position? Any help from Triplanar Jedis to a Padawan would be Gratefully received

Japalapalos. 'arm sits very near rim of platterr'.
I owned the model V or VI with the 'old u.manual'.This
distance is important for the anti-scate to work properly.
My feeling then was as yours at present. But I was not
suprised with model VII.The distance of the headshell to
the platter(rim)of my Kuzma is 4 cm. I hope this helps.

Cheers
