In simple terms, yeah, check it and set it to 18mm if it isn't there already. Mine wasn't at 18. It was at 13. By setting it to 18mm it lowers the fuel level in the bowl. In my case by 5mm. Still plenty high enough to supply the pilot jet.

A fun little cheat/life hack - you can hook up a clear fuel hose to the drain and tie it so it faces up and the end sits above the bowl a bit more, open the drain screw, and observe the fuel level. That is how I discovered my fuel level was damn near all the way up.
