i think the adjusters move the top of the headlight forward and back and the horiz move the outside forward and back. because of the way the light is mounted the vert actually moves it somewhat diagonal and it takes a combination of the 2 to achieve a straight up and down adjustment

i have a honda shadow motorcycle and the light is the same way it is attached by a fixed point and 2 adjustable points, moving one point affects the other adjustment.

look under the thin plastic strips that cover the bolts for the fenders. the holes are under the plastic in the side of the engine compartment at the very top. you will find them just to the rear of the vert adjusters

i gots 1 question thou,

1. 2 turns colockwise of the gear teeth *liquid paper it like cam gears* NOT 2 turns of the screwdiver right this means 2 full gear revolutions of BOTH the vert and hori?

OH yea... one other thing for everyone, IF you have jerky or slow moving AFS, while your in there check your HID plug wiring for binding, mine were really tight and just unsprung it like the old telefone cords and VROOM~~~ my HID fly.

*edit* nm figured it out, its clockwise of the gear not the screwdriver, also i couldnt get to the back ones, need a longer #2 philips and you cant SEE the adjusters either... PITA... i never counted either, just turned and watched it rise, OHH EXCUSE to drive the car to a long tunnel today and another excuse to drive at nite, just to make sure
