Same set up as mine. Check you have the 150 slide not the 200 one. With these atomisers, the bigger the holesthe leaner it is. Here's a useful image...

Evening I have a very similar setup and I am running pilot 45 choke 59 main 115 atomiser 5889 4 slide 5914 2 it has taken a fair bit of setting up. When the engine was first run it was on a 5889 5 atomiser but didn't run smoothly tried a 5889 2 which made it worse hence trying 5889 4 . Was running 112 main jet but just before derby 150 I opened up the air scoop under the seat which on top end gave symptoms of running out of fuel so upped the main jet and now runs well.Hope that all makes sense.
