Heat Riser Open Position?

The heat riser on my '37 120 was rusted in place with zero movement. With some patience and a lot of Kroil, I succeeded in freeing it up, but am not convinced I have the full range of motion. In the closed position, the counterweight is a 9-o'clock. In the open position, it sits at 7-o'clock. Is this the full range of motion or should the counterweight go further (like 6-o'clock) in the fully open position?

That is the full range of motion.
