both arms are adjusted by using a tool -- a gimbal wrench for the Pro... I think the Rig Engineering arm uses a slightly larger size but same idea. I've heard that using electric drills/screwdrivers to do this breaks down the lube on the adjustment bolt quickly (bad). Also you can't feel the end coming and take a chance of over tightening/loosening and really messing things up.
