Default DA 50 timing

got a question for all you engine experts.sense you have to spin the prop fast to get a spark at the plug with the da ignition.how do you set the timing?you can't use a degree wheel like you normally use because you can't see the numbers on the wheel when your spinning it
i had a broken wire on the sensor and had to remove it from engine to fix it.i put a reference mark on the engine before i removed the snsor but would like a way to check it anyways.

CH Ignitions has a great procedure on their website. Even a degree wheel to attach to the hub. Worth researching.

If you look at the red cencer pickup you will see a longetudnal line on it, and a line on the prop hub DA lines thies lines up to time the engine.
