Turn it anti clockwise,and i think if i remember the more letters you go the quicker the pump should shut off,using minibore that is.

If you buy a new one you can do that.

There is no actual correct setting,it will all depend your set up ,the best way is to play about with it yourself but turn the blue dial very slow and tiny turns at a time they are very sensitive  ;)

The blue dial setting inside will determine the shut off time of the pump.

The blue dial inside the box is a pressure switch. You adjust it if you want more or less pressure.
The pump pressure switch should be disabled.
Adjusting the dial won't give you a higher flow rate, it just determines when the pump will switch off when you stop the flow.
Be careful. a 100PSI pump will go up to 130 PSI with the inside dial turned to maximum.
This kind of pressure could well start blowing off connectors and swelling your hose. Dai
