It scares me that Skip from the frozen wastelands of the north can actually understand and competently translate bubbaspeak. He may be some kind of Yankee spy!

Rotating the end cap into the direction of shaft rotation advances the timing. As to how far you need to advance it, that's your call.
Just to make it very clear, what Rob means by "INTO the direction of shaft rotation" is "OPPOSITE the direction of shaft rotation", both statements meaning the opposite of "IN the direction of shaft rotation" (which retards timing) - bubbaspeak can be very subtle!. I was advised back when that 6 -8 degrees advance was about right, YMMV. On no account do you want to retard timing, the current goes up a lot. I found all this out on the occasion of reversing a motor to accommodate adding a brake set-up. Good Lift!
