Hi John, ... There seems to be an opinion that Haynes made a mistake and that those screws adjust something else? ... Maybe Honda changed the design then,...
... As far as I can tell, they do adjust something to do with the panniers - but what? :-) ... No, I slackened off the catches in the pannier lid, and gently...
My o2 doh has both problems. Had casing change once already. Left hand pannier rearmost catch difficult to latch. Doesnt seem to be any adjustment on the lid...

Thanks for the info Geoff, but when I bought the DV new in June 2000 the rear of the exhaust downpipes soon began to rust so I removed them and painted them...
