Manual for pump controller. It actually can't control the pressure, it switches the pump off when the tap on the outlet is closed and no flow is detected.

I want to adjust the pressure when the pump kicks in. In that attached manual it says there is an adjustment screw in figure 5 on page 5, but there is no screw on the top of the blue part.

How To Adjust a Pressure Switch

The starting and stopping of a well water pump is typically controlled by a pressure switch similar to the one shown below. The switch is preset with both the cut-on and cut-off pressure. The cut-on pressure is the low pressure that starts the pump and the cut-off pressure is the high pressure...

This might help / guide you. Remove that blue cover.

When you turn the screw, do you need to reset something for the pressure to increase?

You have to understand that the pressure is limited to the pump working pressure. The pump controller allows you to reduce/control the pressure. If the pressure is still too low after adjusting to the max, you might have to change the pump.

My automatic pump controller is connected to my 0.45kw pump, which gives a maximum of 3 bar:



My wellpoint itself is connected to my .900kw pump which gives a maximum of 4.5 bar:


So have a look at your pump specs as well.
