headlight adjustment

I may be dumb but I can't find the screw to adjust the headlights. I looked at the PDF file for this but I have looked and looked on my truck and can't find the screw that is used to adjust the lights. Can anyone help wit this?

Look on the back of the headlights. It's all the way over next to the fender. It doesn't look like a screw. You will see a hex head nut with what looks like a 1/2" cut washer on it. You can use that to adjust the light. On top of that washer is a small hole and you can see what looks like gear teeth on the back side of it. That is where you turn it with a phillips head screw driver. I'll see if I can get a picture of what to look for.

Here you go:

The left light is usually a little lower than the right one so that it doesn't interfere with oncoming traffic.

My left light was pointing way up high and both were blinding other drivers. I adjusted both of them down and now it looks like my high beams point at the ground. May have to raise them back up a little.

Tox, you and headlights apparently don't mix. As I recall, you had to adjust your headlights on your brand new 4 wheeler when you came hunting! lol!

Yeah, that 4 wheeler had the lights pointing down and only lit up about 15 feet in front of me. Can't go too fast in the dark when that's all I could see.

My truck lights aren't too bad now. I just can't see as far I could before I adjusted them down. Before, I could drive without the highbeams. It was nice.

Yeah I looked at the PDF files but it was not very clear as to where the adjustment screw was located. Thanks.

Finally adjusted mine this last weekend.
So simple - and NO hex or star heads!
Here's a pic with the screwdriver in position - I was 90 degrees off on the screwdriver orientation to begin with, so hopefully this makes it crystal clear:
