When you push the LH lever to the right, you are just getting it on the correct side of the vertical pin on "Lever C" (the pin that engages with the release catch) so that it doesn't stop the delay fitting properly. Once the delay is on, and if the cocking and firing is working, then you don't have to worry. I think the lever is something to do with the "B" setting, but I haven't investigated further.

Incidentally, I've found that when fitting the front-plate, as well as getting the vertical fore-and-aft lever in its slot in the top brass plate, it may be a good idea to make sure the left-right lever (the one that releases the mirror back to its normal position) is on the left of the pin on the shutter which releases it. Again, this will probably sort itself out once you cock and fire the shutter.
