[OM] Setting infinity

My 18mm thinks that infinity is at about 2.5 feet so I'd like to adjust it back. Removing the focusing ring, I see 3 large holes that provide access into the guts of the lens. These line up with 3 largish phillips head screws when turned to infinity or 3 small flat head screws when turned to a bit under 1 foot. Also, there are 2 tiny flat head screws on the focusing ring itself. Before I make a tolerable situation worse (lens works fine but the scale is off), can somebody clue me in to the proper adjustment? Leaving on a trip in a few days.

btw here's the new digital camera press release:
