Not really.

When the lever is toward you the drag is at least tension/setting. Away from you at its highest setting.

You can adjust the maximum setting by putting the lever in its free spool mode and turning the adjusting knob. It is EXTREMELY important on Avet reels for the lever to be in free spool before doing any drag adjustments.

All of this must be done before casting. During the fight the adjustment allows to set it to the maximum drag that was previously set.
