Default Byron F-16 Elevator Trim position

I'm about to test fly my Byron F-16 but there is something in the manual that confuses me. In the balancing and trimming section it states "Elevator Leading edge is 1/4" up from bottom of wing shelf : Trailing edge is even. " On my plane if I set the elevator leading edge to 1/4 '" above the wing sheft the trailing edge is 5/16 " below the wing shelf , not even with it. It could be a real handful to fly if I don't get this at least close to neutral. Could someone out there with an Byron F-16 take a look at their elevator and tell me where there leading edge and trailing edge are at neutral ?

Thanks
