beam, place the vehicle on flat ground, 10

Turn on the low beam, sit on the vehicle
and make sure that the beam projected on
the wall is slightly under the horizontal line
of the headlight (about 9/10th of the total

screw (1) by means of a short cross-tip
screwdriver.

you set the beam downwards.
