Check owner's manual. .....but turning scooter headlight adjustment screws to the Right usually lowers the beam.
Manual should show you where the adjustment device is located.
Need owner of your scooter model to chime in here.....

Generally tightening the screw below the headlight pulls down the headlight bucket - lowering the beam.
Loosening the screw should push up the aim.
My light aim moves only a little at a time....but I don't have your scooter.
I aim it at a wall and place tape on wall to mark my starting point.

As I remember it actually moves the reflector not the lens.
Take your time and go easy, it will adjust.
