The sensor should be lined up with the crank at 35 deg BTDC on #1=20 rotor.  TDC is when the flywheel end counterweight is positioned at = 9:00. 
 
I don't think the procedure you mentioned below is correct.  = Not sure=20 where the engine would be in your procedure but it is 90 = degrees from TDC=20 in one direction or the other.
