My Axix has lockrings on both sides. Whether or not the driveside has a lip, you can put a spacer there. Otherwise, to adjust the chainline, I have been using internal spacers after reading about them in a TA leaflet. However, I made those spacers myself figuring out that it would be too much bother to try to get them from TA though their dealer.
Looking over your instructions:

I am now confused. My BB certainly predates Carmina and Vega. Now those later cranksets are, to the best of my knowledge JIS. Your instructions mention the use of an axle compatible with Carmina and Vega. Maybe it is possible to get different axles for Axix?
Notably, Axix uses stock bearings common for BBs. Because of this, it can be possible to interchange axle and cups with other BBs (most of which have departed though into the past). An issue can be the fit between the axle and opening in the BB, in my memory.
