The video below shows my question better than a text post.
In a nutshell, it seems that my cross-slide gib can only be adjusted in or out by about 1/16" before either one or the other adjustments screws are proud of the face of their respective ends of the cross slide. On the back side, this interferes with attachment of the cross-screw cover and on the front side, it interferes with the way wiper cover.
It seems that the gib is too long to have any adjustment, but it seems more likely that I'm just missing something.
Any help with this would be much appreciated.
FWIW my original problem was that when the gib was properly adjusted, it stuck out the back side of the cross slide about half an inch and the cross screw cover couldn't be installed.
