Horizontally.  Got a number of good suggestions from LUGGERS, along
with one who suggested looking in the M2 repair manual.  I dunked my
head on my keyboard when I read that: I bought an M2 repair manual
reprint copy only a few weeks ago, but had forgotten all about it!

Looked at the M2 yesterday (though not in the manual ;)  I found a large
screw in the middle of the roller; another at the elbow of the arm that
holds the roller; and a third a the shoulder (deeper inside the body)
of this arm.  Which screw is it you adjust?
