Any tips on getting the setting lever assembly together.

ive had to replace the setting assembly which required the circuit to be taken off and the part ( stem realease button ) fitted onto the return spring. 
with the other levers ( I can call them the proper names but for now levers )on the setting parts is it worth assembling them using rodico to hold them in place flip the plate and then try to engage the return spring?

I just serviced a few of these movements. I honestly would remove all of the keyless works and start again. In my experience, trying to finagle and move spring loaded parts usually takes more time than just starting over. you can use rodico on the on the movement side to hold the setting lever pin in, but it usually isn't necessary.

 

A side note on this movement, one I recently serviced would not pulse or run, but when removing the circuit and coil from the plate, those would generate a pulse. This pin on the underside was grounding out on the plate below, so I had to file a bit away to stop that. Something I hadn't come across before.

You might find this lesson I wrote helpful. Unfortunately, I converted it into a PDF to post so it won't show the video of fitting the keyless work.

Here's a link to my cloud storage where you'll find the PowerPoint presentation https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1_OPys8CnqdprxOvnHL2QTTFR802jjFW1/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=107902587627140904870&rtpof=true&sd=true
