adjusting air flow

I've been using a c-pap for a couple of years and think I may need to adjust the pressure of the air flow, but can't afford to go in for new tests and all the rigamarole. Is there a way to adjust the machine myself? It is a Respironics REM Star Auto M Series. I'd appreciate any help.

Hopefully these will help.
