Err....no. No recommendations for pressure as it depends on your weight & the leverage ratio exerted by the shock linkage. Follow the set-up instructions & use the "O" ring to gauge how far the shock is travelling. At 17 stone I would guess you'll be at or near the upper limit for shock which ISTR is 300 PSI.

As said depends on the frame, but I think 1psi per kg is a good starting point, then work out what suits you.
