Thanks in advance...
You shouldn't be using that combination.....The drill however is to shorten the chain just enough that there is no rub when in that combination......Then,assuming you are using the correct derailer for the application,it will handle the large cog for the recommended application. But always check to be certain the chain is also long enough for the big/big.
