MK3S+ E-axis Assembly Step 54 - Can't tilt X-Axis motor inwards

Hi all. I'm on Step 54 of '5. E-Axis Assembly'. I'm supposed to loosen the top 2 screws of the X-axis motor and tilt the motor inwards towards the frame (to reduce tension on the belt, then increase it when I put the motor back upright). The picture in the manual makes it look like a pretty significant tilt. My motor is more or less level when screwed in. If I remove the top 2 screws, I can't tilt it inwards at all. It's hitting a screw in the motor bracket that prevents it from tilting inwards. It can tilt outwards no problem. Do I have something assembled incorrectly or is the tilt for this step REALLY small? Thanks!

Here's a video showing the issue:
