After seeing the pictures I think something is not assembled correctly so the adjustments will not correct this. The linkage setting the rest position may not be assembled in the correct order or something is out-of-place. I do not have a mixture unit handy to disassemble so pictures of a "correct" one will be helpful in getting this one back to "normal" if anyone can foward them. The manual isn't really precise on the exact fit-up of this area. BTW if you have a manual that is used to rebuild these mixture units uploading it would be very useful to ALL of us.
