That's because the floats and tangs are both plastic, and are not adjustable, like with some carbs.

Just inspect the floats for damage, and you'll be good, if you really want some assurance regarding the level, just check for consistency in level from one to the next, but if they are undamaged, you should be fine!

I had my bike stored away for several years and the plastic floats bent under their own weight and wouldn't seal with new needle valves. I got new ones and the problem went away. F2 floats only need gravity feed, so they are relatively light pressure. When using a remote tank for tuneups, I had to make sure it wasn't too high above the bike, or it would over power the floats.
