Lionel Trolley 60

I have a second generation model 60. As long as I have owned it, about 20 years I have had an issue with the trolley pole over swinging in one direction. It operates fine in all other regards. This was not a problem but now that I have retired I am working on a more elaborate layout and actually plan to have catanary strung for the trolley. I am not worrying about actual contact as these are to trains but I would like the trolley pole to be at least in proximity.

I can not see any means of adjustment, other than limiting the travel of the slide. At this point I am curious if I am missing something otherwise I will look at how I can limit the travel of the slide. Manually moving the slide till it is properly aligned I have found I need it to stop something between 1/8th and a  1/16th of an inch less than it currently is traveling. Fortunately at that point it still makes good contact and reverses as expected.  Any ideas about this appreciated.
