Sure. As I see it, the 'o' marking at the bottom is the set point, and the dial is currently set to ~2.3 or so. The tapering line and the high/low markings are to give you an idea of which direction to turn it to increase / decrease the setting, and are, IMHO, entirely superfluous and confusing, because for most people, 3 is higher than 2, so if you put the 3 next to the mark, it'll be a higher setting...
Actually, I take back my earlier comment. I don't think an engineer designed this dial... they'd run through the same thought process I just did above, and delete either the numbers on the dial or the tapering line markings. Probably the tapering line, because knowing what it's currently set on (which the numbers give you) is probably more important than just knowing which way to turn it to increase / decrease the setting.
