H4 adjustments?

After having my H4's off the car to do some work, I just can't seem to get them adjusted. Can someone explain the way the H4 should look when installed...what I am looking at is the lamp unit held in the cylindar by just the two adjustment screws?

When I attempt to lower the beam the lamp unit seems to just pull forward. I just have a feeling that something is not right and by now I am sure all other motorists as night agree with me.

Pics of one assembled would be great.

Thanks

The top will lower/raise the light while the lower screw will move the light left/right. I noticed that when I did mine a couple of weeks ago that turning counter-clockwise on the top moves it down while clockwise on the lower screw moves the lens toward the lower screw. I had to really screw the things in/out to get it adjusted. It wasn't just a simple turn of the screws either. Mine were really pointing toward the sky. That is why the moon seemed so bright on some occasions because of me.

well I did manage to get them down to a better level where they don't peg the driver ahead of me in the back of the head.
