1000.4 Aiming and Elevation setting

[triple835]

Where do you align the bolt to equal 36. According to Dish Networks manual for my dish and zip code the settings are EL=36 , AZ = 170, SK = 79. AZ and Sk are easy enough, but where do you align the bolt / nut to equal 36. Top of nut, bottom, or middle? I've included a pic of my current setting.

Gray metal above nut. In the pic, looks like you have it set to 45.
