JD M1 Jointer Adjustment

[JohnDeereM50]

I have the operators manual to my M1 plow but the adjustments for the jointer are a little vague to me. I removed it and ordered 4 new square headed bolts and nuts for it and cleaned it up some and reinstalled it. Below are some pics of the way it is setup currently. I'll have to test and tune when the ground gets right this spring. Any help on jointer adjustments are welcome. Thanks.

Here it is behind the M. In the process of slowly restoring both.

Move the Jointer Forward, toward the center of the Coulter..it will run more accurately along-side the Coulter if you do..

It won't move up much further because the brace that attaches to the hitch is in the way. Ill move it as far as I can though and adjust the set screw on top to pitch it forward.
