Default Alternator regulator advice?

Hi all.

Just got my Lucas (Prince of darkness) alternator reconditioned, and it's over- charging back to the battery at about 14.7 - 15 volts. I understand there is a voltage regulator at the back of the alternator itself, but the manual I have doesn't give any tip about how to adjust it.
Can anyone give any better advice as to how this can be performed before I start fumbling in the dark?

Should have specified it's off a 2- litre Mk 2 Escort.
