There are two adjustments (?) on my Y2D w/Floyd trem arm - one on the underside of the bridge accessible by removing the backside cover, and the small one on the topside - aside the trem arm.

What is the function of each? I normally tighten the topside one to control swing however it seems like about every other time I play the guitar its worked real loose again, not sure if my approach is incorrect?

Thanks!
 
i´m with you, i tight the arm on the topside as well.
i think the other screw is just for holding the trem-arm in the trem itself, because there is no other kind of locking system on it. just like the IBZ trems have or the original floyd has.
 
The one on the base of the bridge is actually for tightening the tension of the arm.

I've got no idea what the one topside does, it's perplexed me since I got mine. Just not enough to ask about it, lol
