WEBER float level, is HANES suggestion correct?

According to HANES, " top edge of the float from the top edge of the carburetor body flange(without gasket) should be .492 to .512in.(12.5 to 13 mm)
My questions are:
1) is that measure taken at the exact moment when the float closes the fuel entering the bowl?
2) is that measure correct?
Thank you guys.

Yes to both questions. MUCH better to check fuel level in bowl with external fuel level vial and shim needle valve. Statically check/adjust float to set the basic geometry first. Be sure to peen out the divot in the tab and leak check floats in a hot water bath before float installation. Fuel pressure is 2.5m of water which equates to 3.56 psi.
