The "fore & aft" settings can be changed manually by inserting a little winding tool into the motor and turning it ..... lots. I see no reason why the "up & down" motor would not have the same facility .... if you can get to it !!

not sure where the height motor is, there is a little winding tool to turn the motor by hand. About 1,0000,000,000 rotations = 1cm of movement, but can be done.

Sounds like a job for the cordless screwdriver, or electric drill if you can get it in.  You could also try applying power to various wires if you can see which ones are which.
