6 point term
Screws too tight
Wont go down further because the back of the plate is prying on the screws

Back the screws out a bit
May still have limited range

In general if the six screws are lowered so far they affect the motion and range of the trem, the base will be tilted up and noticeable; raise them much higher than where the ‘decked’ height is and the tuning stability can suffer. It’s a balance.
