More B-Screw woes...

Fitted a new XT M780-GS rear mech yesterday (also cassette, chain, shifter & cable)
I'm running a 2x10 setup and when I'm in the big chianring & the largest sprocket the top jockey wheel is about 15-20mm from the sprocket - so the chain is not even making contact with the jockey wheel when in this gear.
The B-Screw is at it's limit. Is this a cable tension issue?

Nope. Pics.
Sounds like too much B screw adjustment."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

Have you got the mech attachment bolt arm onto the hanger right? Should be pointing backwards parallel to the ground0

This photo is with small ring - large sprocket 'cos it's easier to see the gap between sprocket & pulley wheel
B-Screw is at it it's max. (out i.e if I screw it in the gap increases)"Why have that extra tooth if you're not using it?" - Brian Lopes

How about a side photo? Yes it's short of where it should be but can't tell why0

Didn't have the mech fitted properly! The whole thing needed to swivel forward a bit. All working fine now.
