O2 regulator - floating ball

[cheesecake89]

Hey guys quick question. How do you set the O2 regulator on the wall? Do you set it by looking at the top of the floating ball. Below the floating ball. Or the middle of the floating ball. I tried searching my nursing book and it's not there. For example when setting the O2 to 2L/min, where is the ball in relation to that 2L line?

You want the center of the float ball to cover the line corresponding to the desired liter flow.
