How to read these numbers

How to find zero

We have no sourced steps for finding zero on the Hario Skerton Pro. Zero is the setting where the burrs just touch, and the numbers above count from there. The maker's manual is the place to look for the steps.

What is the zero point?

Brew method fit. Few coarse notches and a 350 µm floor leave no room for espresso, and moka is tight. Reviewers disagree on Turkish: one gives a setting, another calls it marginal.
