Evo headlight adjustment.

My recent MOT inspection confirmed comments from riders that have ridden in front of me who say that it’s difficult to see me behind them as the headlight is “invisible” …my friendly MOT man attempted to adjust the vertical setting but I realise now that he was using the horizontal adjuster
So in the time honoured tradition of “when everything else fails read the instructions “ I decided to adjust the vertical this afternoon.The manual shows the screw/bolt adjuster which is helpfully completely obscured by the throttle cable…but the manual doesn’t say which way is up or down Has anyone performed this basic task and does the adjuster make any significant difference.
PS, I seldom/never ride in the dark, this is a safety feature only on my bike.
PPS a helpful “friend” suggested riding with main beam on …which admittedly did make me more noticeable to leading riders….any thoughts on this solution ?
