Adjusters are on top of the lights. But check that the adjusters aren't brken ie are the reflectors loose inside?  There's a guide to fitting ally adjusters if need be.

can't remember ........... but there are only two of them. Adjust one and if the beam goes left/right it's the other!  ;) And you need lots of turns to make a difference.  :y

use a cordless drill or something....although carefully of course, because its painfully slow otherwise due to the gearing.
