There are a few basic oboe adjusting tips on several sites on the Web. You might try a Google search. I've never found anything very comprehensive about oboe adjust on these sites, but I have picked up a few tips here and there. I have some bookmarked, but I am just plain too tired right now to search them out for you. I'll do that tomorrow.
Edit: OK -- here are some links to free info about oboe adjusting. It may be worth what you're paying for it, so just use this as general guidance:

http://www.csinstitute.org/content/pdf/Oboe_AV4330small.pdf
This last link is about reed adjusting, as far as I can tell. It is a charming site, though, and one I hadn't stumbled upon before (I found it 10 pages into the Google search on oboe adjusting -- going deep here).

The most accessible (i.e., if you can read, you can figure it out) oboe adjusting guide that I know of is by Carl Sawicki. Lots of us use it. Last I checked, Gary Van Cott of Van Cott Information Services (a board sponsor) had copies of it for sale. Look in the right-hand column --------> under "Music & Books" to find Gary's url. Here's a link to Van Cott: http://www.vcisinc.com/oboe.htm Same price as at RDG (Dutchy's post, below).
Good night, all.
