CASE 440 starter...!

Hi,
this was brought to me, no power on start up.
I noticed right away, the Bendix seems far too close.
The guy told me, when he installs his starter, he needs to align the Bendix with the ring gear, apparently, the teeth mesh.
Is this normal...?
I fiddled with it, and moved the screw, the screw that has a pin and spring, so the screw moves down farther, so now the Bendix can rest out of reach of the ring gear.
But, I havent tried it on the tractor.
The first pic, shows how it came to me, and secound, how it looks with the pin and spring moved, so it dosent lock to close to the ring, and now can move way down.
Havent a clue how it will work installed.
I'm not familiar with this starter...
Would anyone have an exploded view of the starter,especially the Bendix...

Thanks!..

Last pic, found online, Bendix moved way back, seems normal, the way its supposed to be, but I cant figure out why this one is so close
 
That Bendix just screws out on a course threaded spline when the starter starts to spin, and retracts on the spline with aid of a spring when engine starts. If it doesn't retract the splines may be worn on the armiture or the bendix. Not quite sure what your question is!!!
