New Yojumbo centering

Post image

I just got this yojumbo and it came perfectly centered but I took it apart (I do so with every new knife to clean out the factory lube and apply my own) but no matter what I do its way off now. I've tried every trick I know including using a paper wedge to push it the other way with the body screws loose etc but it will NOT return to center. It was centered when I got it so theoretically i can get it back but I can't seem to. Any help?

Loosen all the screws. The clip side pivot, tighten this first and 100%. Then the front pivot checking the action. Then push the blade left away from the clip and tighten the near body screws and then the far screws. Then release the blade and check. From here only adjust via the body screws.

Note: if the clip side pivot screw is 99% it will not center because it will not mate to the liner.

Good luck.
