It should be close to level in the up position.

I believe they are normally matched between gauge and sensor for calibration. I don’t think there’s an easy way to adjust the float to correspond with the reading on the gauge.

There is a screw/plug in the side of the carb body that you can remove to check the fuel level in the bowl. Just an FYI that my help you out while doing this. Unfortunately, I don't know the measurements for the floats off the top of my head.
