Before putting the cable in, adjust the low setting on the derailleur:
With no cable, shift the chain to the biggest cog and put the chain
on the little chainring. The chain should have approximately 1mm clearance
between the chain and the inside plate of the derailleur Back out the
inside screw on top of the derailleur to move the unit inward, towards
bottom bracket. Once the 1mm is set, put the cable through the deraileur
arm.
Make sure the adjustment at the shifter is most of the the way screwed
into the shifter. Tighten down the holding screw on the derailleur arm.
Shift the shifter into middle chainring position. You eventually want
the same 1mm between the chain and inner plate. Back the adjustment
screw out to increase cable tension and move plate outwards. You may
have to reset the cable on the derailleur arm if more adjustment is
needed.
Next, shift to the big ring and shift to the smallest cog in back.
You should have 1mm of clearance between the chain and the outside plate
now. Adjust the outer screw on the top of the derailleur to get this.
Back the screw out to move it towards the outside. Tighten the the bolt
holding the cable and go for a ride.
