You need to check the bed levelling, don't try fiddling with the headstock alignment. There is probably a small amount of twist in the bed which can be removed first by making sure the stand is rigidly fixed to the floor, then careful adjustment of the clamping bolts holding the lathe bed down. A precision spirit level is very helpful to test across the bed at various points to make sure they are all coplanar.

Yes, a check with my level shows that the bed has a twist in it, I can shim the mounting cabinet easy enough, will it correct the headstock I wonder?
