Aligned my first tape head on a Panasonic Shockwave portable cassette player

Tape Trail

Reel to reel, cassette and other analogue tape formats.

I turned a screw near the bottom right of the head which did nothing. The one to the left of the head which was also more recessed did the trick. I had my headphones and was playing the tape while adjusting the screw and got it to sound clear. Does anyone know what the right screw does?
