Default lowbeam question...

to adjust the lowbeam you gotta turn that teeth looking thing with a screwdriver, or on the back use a wrench. my question is which way is to make the beam turn upwards, clockwise or counterclockwise? my beams are for some reason pointing REALLY low and i wanted to move them up a tad bit. TIA for any help.

I THINK:

see that's the problem, it takes so many turns to even notice the thing going up, don't wanna sit out there all day trying to figure out which way is up and which way is down, oh well maybe i'll go check the manual...

Clockwise with screwdriver= Up Higher. Bubble will move away from your cabin
Counterclockwise with screwdriver= Moves beam down. Bubble will move towards the cabin.

Or you could use a 7mm or 8mm (can't remember which one) socket to adjust it.

I adjusted mine last week. I find it easier to adjust with the socket wrench.
