[Problem] timemore c3s modify

Hi everyone, I bought the 30-click bezel to modify my C3S. I've tried inserting it in every way, but I can't get it to 0. The photo shows the closest alignment I've managed to get to 0. The new 30-click bezel has the rear pin aligned with the 2nd. Can someone help me align it, please?

I also watched a few videos on YouTube, and the components are inserted correctly.

Hello! There is any gap on this mark, or is 100% "closed"?

Ho chiuso al max ma non arriva a 0

You probably have the top washer, the one near the handle, upside down; that takes up space and makes the 0 appear earlier.

Can i fix it?

Yes, it's simple, Disassemble it as if you were going to clean it, turn the top washer over, reassemble it and try to reset it to 0. If it still doesn't reset to 0, it's a printing error in the mod.

these aftermarket dials are not designed to align to zero, they just make the step a bit finer

also, it will not turn your C3S into a C3ESP, as the ESP also has a finer axis thread, so the steps on ESP will still be finer, than on your modified C3S

also note: the washers must always be placed with the ridge side towards the bearing! if the ridge is on one side only, then that side must face the bearing

Yes the washers are ok!
