Hello,
Here is a picture to the water valve shutoff for my house:

I need to turn the main water valve off and I can't seem to be able to locate it. I turned the screw pointed to by the green arrow until it was all the way against the pipe. When I initially approached the valve it was opened about 5 turns. What does this screw do? The other possibility is that the red arrow is the shutoff valve. It's curious that the red handle is disconnected from the valve and is on the floor. Do I need to reattach it? Could someone help point me in the right direction. Thanks for helping a beginner!
