The pickup works best when the sensors sit around 3–8 mm below the strings.

Fingerpickers often prefer it closer (around 3–4 mm) for detail and sensitivity.

Strummers usually set it slightly lower (6–7 mm) for a more balanced response.

Height is adjusted using the custom M3 screws with left- and right-handed threads. In most guitars, the screw range provides all the adjustment you need. If you reach the limit of screw adjustment and still need more height, you can add the D-shaped neoprene pads under the pickup. This provides additional height adjustment and ensures the pickup sits at the correct level even on thicker or unusually shaped tops.
