Power Steering Box adjustment

On the last ride I noticed that my Steering has about 2" play side to side
Has anybody tighten up the play using the Nut on top of the Box?
My box and power steering unit was rebuilt ? Any thoughts on what to do.

Mark, The screw in the center is the adjuster, the nut just locks it in position.

Will turning the screw remove the Play and which way do you turn ?

Be sure your wheels are pointing straight ahead first. Turning the screw clockwise will remove play between the sector and worm gear.
