I will try to explain it.
The LDA is a fuel limiter, it actually limits the travel of the tension lever in the pump. When you supply the LDA with boost the control cone is pushed down via the pressure placed on the diaphragm, as this is pushed down the guild pin slides inward changing the point in which the tension lever stops.
The best method to adjust these pumps is to adjust the smoke screw on the LDA all the way out to remove any preload, then disconnect the boost reference line to the LDA and drive the car around at low rpm full load to adjust the smoke via the max fuel screw.
If you can't eliminate the smoke there is something else going on, maybe bad injectors, timing not advanced enough, worn out engine, one cylinder severely low on compression, bad valve guides and seals, ect..
