The 2 x bolts that go through the clamping blocks to hold the rollers on,either side of the cam plate, one of them has a square on the top and this is machined as an eccentric pin to get your adjustment clearance on the roller to the cam , which should be about .010 thou, each side set when in the straight ahead position.Cheers Andrew.

There should be one square headed bolt in each clamping block. Each side of the cam needs to be adjusted to get the same clearance, and then done up tight, Cheers Andrew.

In fact, one book suggests making the left one tighter as it is much harder to access for adjustment, than the right one, when everything is in the carrier.

There is an arrow stamped in the eccentric bolt top to assist with setup.
