Exclamation 127 MAK SLT focus knob

While modding my OTA I took off the focuser knob (had two little screws which was easily removed using an Allan key).

I was now left with a bit of metal where the focuser knob sits on. I accidentally pushed it in a bit and discovered it can be pushed in and out.

I wanted to ask if anyone was familiar with this if I actually ruined the focus of my scope?

When I get home I can take some photos to get a visual representation.

When I tested the OTA on a tree during daylight it seemed to focus in and out alright, maybe I changed the focus point?

Any thoughts are appreciated.
