  1. "not" doesn't belong. Then the sentence reads "Can I dial a gauge clockwise to around 78 degrees?".


  2. clockwise-because- a gauge can't go counter-clockwise.

  3. The word NOT doesn't seem to fit here.  I'd expect it to be OR.

    Can I dial a gauge clockwise to around 7 or 8 degrees?

    You wouldn't say 7, not 8 degrees if you were saying "around", since around means approximately, and that would be too exact.

  4. The word "around' doesn't belong. Its redundant.

  5. you do not need the word "TO"
