I'm not familiar with that model fd but if it's intended for MTB or Hybrid use with relatively small chainrings (say 44/34/24) and you are using it with a road crank (52/42/30) then the cage curvature will be too sharp to match the large chainring and you will have to space it too far away as you have done.
