Differences in the specific installation make changes to the required setting to give the same oil flow, therefore any one else's setting is meaningless to you, even on the same bike with the oiler in the same place.
Scottloiler recommend a setting that gives two drops of oil a minute, bend the oil feed tube away from the sprocket and with the bike ticking over time roughly how long between drops. I find that's normally a bit high, but it's a good place to start and it'll get you in the right sort of area. Remember the chain shouldn't be dripping with oil, the benefit of an oiler is that it's constantly metering oil to the chain, not spraying loads on that gets gradually lost as time passes like spray on lube does.
