Default SYE install problem.

So I just finished installing an Advance Adapters SYE in my NP 231 J. It is sitting on the bench awaiting reinstall. My problem is I can only find 2 positons on the selector lever. One is 2 wheel the other is one of the 4 wheel selections. I guess I am going to have to disassemble it again but what do I need to look for.

I assume it is 4 lo. I can't find anything that tells me which way 4 lo is. I think it is when the lever at its closest to the case?

Sweet. Thanks. That's what I was looking for. I am going to pull it apart in the morning and see what I did wrong.

Status report. This morning I split the case to observe the mechanism. Thanks to Turbo X_J who posted the positions of the lever I was able to determine that I probably did not have a problem after all. I just did not want to install it till I was sure I did not have a problem internally. But I ended up with a problem after all. I dropped the pump and broke an ear off of it. Can’t win for losing. Thanks to all.
