Replying to myself for informational reason. Modifying voltage was more or less successful. Both optocouplers transmit a reference voltage, so both need to be adjusted simultaneously.
This can be done by changing the value of R19, a 23.2k smd resistor close to the output terminals.
I've attached a 10k pot with a 10k and 6.8k resistor in series and successfully modified the voltage down to 22.5.
The power supply itself is a piece of crap though. It claims to handle 400W but anything over 150W causes the short circuit protection to activate, never mind overheating at 150W very quickly.
