Default Onan points replacement, help!!

I have the B48G onan in my 982 that I have replaced the points and condenser in. I have it all together but when I tighten the whole assembly down the breaker plunger will not move up or down. I tried adjusting the little set screw on the back side but that doesn't do anything. This was working before I removed it so I am stumped on what it could be. Help, I want to get this sucker running again.

There is a manual in one of the sections here for that engine now - I sent it to Roland to post last week. Hopefully there is something in it to aid in the set up after rebuilding/replacing???

I found that manual, thanks for doing that. It didn't have any help with this particular situation. I did solve the problem for now but something is not right. I found that if I tilted the assembly back just a bit the plunger moved smoothly. So I took a thick piece of gasket and sanded it down to a tapper making the backside thinnest (to make the assembly tilt back making the plunger point more forward) and this freed up the plunger. I should have taken a picture inside the hole where the plunger goes in but to describe it, there is a piece (bearing?) that the plunger was hanging up on. Should this be seen in the hole or should it all be clear? Basically, when you are looking at the cam through this hole, it is partially covered (less than half) by this bearing, is this correct?

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
