I've just installed a new cassette which has a larger range than the previous. Without the chain on the top jockeywheel knocks in to the largest sprocket even with the b-tension fully tightened. is this correct? should i be relying on the chain tension to pull the jockey wheels away from the cassette or should they sit clear without the chain installed.

note: rear mech is long cage.
Keeping the top pulley from hitting larger cogs is accomplished by screrwing th b limit screw in, tightening a spring in the pivlot, rotating the cage back. If the screw is all the way in and still contact, longer screw or shorten the chain by one link.
