Default Intruder 1500 shock adjustment

Has anyone tried to adjust their rear shock? The bike is supose to have an adjustable 5 position rear shock but there are only two slim spanner nuts on the top. Any feedback would be helpful.

On my Intruder VS, you just twist the bottom of the shock to move a small cam to the next stop. There is very little difference between the 1 and the 5 settings, but with it cranked up to 5 it does not bottom out on speed bumps with a passenger on board.
I may see my buddy today, who has been riding a 1500LC for some years, and if I do I'll ask him if his adjust the same way.
