The height adjustment knob should not rotate 360; it should stop at each end of the left to right rotation. The knob can be a real PITA itself if it wasn't installed or "calibrated" correctly.
The distance between the deck and upstop plate should be no closer than 1/16"; if it's a little more that's fine.
The link pins shown in the pic are the principal way to adjust the height, but the front lift arms (the ones at the front of the deck and attach to the tractor also need to be in sync with the links. I struggled for a year with getting the balance right among the several links, rods and the knob.
Also, keep in mind, the deck wheels aren't supposed to ride on the ground. The deck literally hangs from the tractor.
The independent lift hose may have to be rerouted. Mine did. It was a stretch, but it was doable.
Last November, I traded the 2320 for what had to be one of the last new 2720's in the USA. I loved the 2320, but after 90 hours on the 2720, I love it even more. And there's no adjustment knob, which I did not like, no zerks buried in the belly and tons more power.
Best of luck getting your adjustment. Take your time, say what needs to be said
and keep at it. It will work out.
