Adjusting Headlights

[Piotr]

Just wondering if anyone knows how the head lights adjustment works. I found the 2 bolts to adjust each headlight but have no idea which way to turn them.

If anyone knows how they work could it would be great

or you could just trial and error it

Indeed "trial & error" is the best method if you've not done it before on this model, but ensure you are in a dark area (dusk or evening is usually best) so as to ensure you dont "over-adjust" them. Rough rule of thumb is @8-10 ft from a fence or roller door (dark surface) on even ground. I have a proper (adjustment distance) guide (pdf), if you want me to email it to you, just PM me with your email address. _2:

be very careful, IIRC the adjusters on these are somewhat fragile......

do not use a cordless / electric screwdriver or you'll strip threads.....

The ones in the back corners are the side to side adjusters and the ones low down in the middle are the up and down, as far as I remember. Damned if I can remember which way they move though, only that the up and down is fairly sensitive and the side to side isn't. A wall or door and trial and error, I'm afraid. Don't forget to check the level adjuster is set to full high first.

Adjusted the headlights just them. Thanks for the advice guys, I used a screw driver to turn the bolts and it took all of 30seconds to get it right.

Much better lighting at night

Oh, that was pretty easy then.
