You may be thinking of the bleeding procedure or the procedure used to measure the oil quantity being delivered over time. Which are performed with the oil pump in the furthest position that it can be.
LIT-18616-02-72 covers the OP's model regarding syncing the oil pump to the throttles. Here...
The oil pump control lever is not supposed to be hitting anything at the wide open throttle position. It is set in the throttle closed position. It will be wherever it will be in the wide open throttle position.
