As the adjustment arm rotates about the lock screw, the point must be moved in the direction opposite to the desired correction. You really need to unlock the screw then shift the adjustment point left or right to align the rangefinder horizontally. It’s possible that you could get the RF into adjustment by playing with it, but that’s a crap shoot. The horizontal screw is a lock screw, not an adjustment screw.
