The dots will be lined up before you put the KIPS stop bolt in from the LH side.  they will then rotate when you put the bolt in.  center valve leave two bolts loose, kips drums leave up enough to get the governer rod through, line up rod lines and drum dots, install kips stop bolt and then spacers at the end of drums, tighten center valve bolts and install rod seal screw. check for smooth actuation.

Good luck

when i took the valves out i didnt notice the lines on the shaft, but i did notice the left hand dot was at 3:00 and the right hand hand dot with the idler gear was at 9:00..
