There's two units of measurements on those so when you're setting the torque make sure you're looking at the right side, lbs/ft or N/m.

The increments of 5 on the shaft is used to get close to your desired torque and then you add increments of 0.5 on the handle to reach your desired torque.

As for setting it, loosen the locking bolt at the bottom of the handle and turn the handle to raise or lower the top of the outer handle to line up with the torque numbered on the shaft.
The shaft is listed in increments of 5 and has a horizontal line with each number that the top of the turning handle should line up with.
The top of the handle has vertical lines with increments of 0.5 and should line up with the vertical line on the center of the shaft.
Turn the handled to the nearest 5 of your desired torque and then fine tune the torque with the vertical lines on the handle and line it up with the vertical line on the shaft.
Lock the torque in by tightening the locking bolt on the bottom of the handle.

Ex: Desired torque of 28 lbs/ft. The top of the handle should match the horizontal line of 25, then turn the handle until the vertical lines on the handle is on 3 and is inline with the vertical line on the shaft.
