Help! Rookie with Pneumatics!!!

Hi everyone. Some of you may know me from being the rookie programmer for my team. I am also the rookie pneumatics lead (Our team lost most of its key builders/leads this year) and I was wondering how to configure the regulators for the pneumatics. In particular I had several questions I couldn't find an answer to online.

1. Are the regulators set by default to only allow 60 PSI of maximum pressure to the actuators? If I want a maximum of 60 PSI going to the actuators do I just need to make sure both regulators are set to max setting (By twisting the primary and secondary's respective knobs to their max)?

2. Does more air tanks = less compressor on time?

3. I felt like there was an air leak coming from the regulators from the top with the knobs that control how much pressure is allowed through. Is this normal?
