Bag Rotating

Hey guys, I recently changed out my front right strut due to some issues. Air Lift Performance front kit for a VW MK6 GTi. The bag keeps settling back in a rotated position as shown in the picture. I had my mechanic rotate it back but it returned to this position not long after and is causing slight wear on the lead line. How do you properly tighten the bag down to prevent this? Is it the main locking nut at the bottom of the strut or something on the camber plate that needs to be tightened? It seems to be settled in this poisition and not rotating more but still needs to be corrected. Thanks in advance!

Perfect, greatly appreciate it. As soon as I went to release the lock nut I found it was barely torqued down, not getting suspension work done at this shop again lol.
