Headlamps and auxiliary lamps - beam alignment

The headlamps are adjustable individually for both horizontal and vertical alignment from within the engine compartment. The auxiliary lamp adjustment is carried out by slackening the lamp mounting and moving the lamp as necessary.

Accurate alignment can only be carried out using optical beam setting equipment, and this work should be entrusted to a Ford dealer.
