Provided is a reference angle position setting means for setting an optical
axis at a reference angle position (direction of going straight ahead: 0)
by detecting the maximum deflection angles when swivel lamps 3R and 3L
are pivoted in one direction and in the opposite direction and gaining the reference
angle position based on both the maximum deflection angles detected. Projector
lamps are pivoted in one direction toward the reference angle position so as to
set an optical axis position through the steps of detecting a first maximum deflection
angle by pivoting each projector 30 lamp in one direction until it is no
longer able to pivot in one direction, detecting a second maximum deflection angle
by pivoting a headlamp in the opposite direction until it is no longer able to
pivot in the opposite direction and computing the reference angle position of the
irradiation optical axis from the first and second maximum deflection angles. Thus
it is possible to not only set off the deflection produced in the projector lamps
and the like but also accurately set the optical axis at the reference angle position
at the time of bringing the projector lamps into contact with stoppers on both sides.
