I believe That's the way it's supposed to work.  In normal high-beam
operation on these lights, the low beams go out.  When you pull on the
lever half-way, it provides for the "flash to pass" function and both the
high and low beams are on.

There should be headlight alignment instructions in the qlist archives.
Check there.
