There are basically two ways (6-B-3-B) to achieve this:

1. By changing the position of the Clubshaft in your Left Hand.

2. By changing your Perpendicular Wrist Conditions (4-B).

#1 is what I tried to explain in my previous post, and it's the recommended way. The exact position of the Clubshaft in your Left Hand will depend on various factors. So you may not necessarily have to go as far as to hold the Clubshaft in your fingers to be on Elbow Plane, but it should be more towards the fingers for Elbow Plane and more away from the fingers for the steeper Planes.

#2 is possible, but not recommended. It would require a Cocked Left Wrist at Impact to put the Clubshaft on Elbow Plane. That would make Impact Alignments difficult to control. And it would restrain the release of Accumulator #2, resulting in a loss of power.
Sorry for the lack of nuance in describing the grip as being "in the fingers" rather than '"more" in the fingers'.

When Mr. Kelley writes in 7-2 -4, "move the Stance Line and adjust the Knee Bend, the Waist Bend and the #3 Accumulator Angle (per 6-B-3-B) until the Left Wrist is Flat, Level and Vertical (4-0, 7-8 ) with the Clubface "Soled" and aligned per 2-J-1 and 7-6," should the words "move the Stance Line and adjust the Knee Bend, the Waist Bend" have been omitted ?

When I asked the question (Does setting the shaft on the elbow plane necessitate placing the club in the fingers creating more Accumulator #3 angle ?), I guess I had in mind this. Is there more to setting the plane angle than simply the way the club is placed, more or less, in the fingers per 6-B-3-B ? And if so, is it possible to change the plane angle without changing the grips placement in the fingers (more or less) and thus the Accumulator #3 angle ? It appears there is.
