Then you will see a reference of where your "pointer" is in relation to the striker, (rather where your striker is in relation to the pointer). This can help a lot. Either way, it's going to be a lot of repeated unbolting rebolting etc.

Thought I'd recirculate the tip, pun intended.
GREAT tip.
Must I use Red lipstick??
