Tim (48pack-conv), the published --> diagram was for illustration purposes only to understand your problem. It shows a distributor of a Soviet car. Please totally ignore it, it isn't helpful anymore.

Let's have a look at your setup as seen at the pic below. As you can see the red marked guide rail is bent because one spacer is missing between slotted guide rail and rod
To assemble your vacuum unit please try to disregard my bad English and follow the instruction. Go along with that picture. The page from the manual that HH56 published shows almost the same system. Please enlarge it and take a close look at item 394015 and 394016. Thereafter you'll better understand my drawing. Item 394015 equals to your "leftover". Its pointer allows a pinpoint read of your basic setting. Item 394016 is just a nut. Both items have pins like wings to hold them in place at the guide rail. Please note sequence and direction according to my drawing. Good luck!
