NO , the limit screws are set to allow derailer travel to low and high position with about 1/8 inch extra gap on the inside (small sprocket) and than on the outside (large sprocket) between the chain and the derailer arm.

All the limit screws do is limit side to side movement, with 1/8 inch extra clearance allowed.

Never Give Up!!!
