poulan 2150 chainsaw/ mixture set screw settings

[crftsmnfrevr]

long story short, lent saw to neighbor,was brought back and I was informed he could not get it started. I noticed that the fuel mixture set screws looked to be in a different position than I remembered... Please tell me what the factory settings are. Or at what position I should set them to enable my saw to run,so correct tuneing can be performed.Looking foreward to learning more about all the topics contained here. Thanks for the help.....

Usually one turn out from lightly seated will be close .

Scott, thanks alot i'll adjust it & see if I can get it to go,by the way there are 2 screws on it the red one can be turned past a full 360',thats the one to set 1 turn out........the other one has a blue limiter collar which restricts it's movement from about the 12o'clock position to about the 6o'clock position........should I set it in the middle to begin attempting to start it?

The information that my service manual gives is that both the L (low speed adj.) and the H (high speed adj.) are to be set at one turn out from lightly seated . Set it in the middle and give it a few pulls and see if it pops . If not then remove the plug and see if it is wet with fuel . If not then check the fuel filter and fuel line .
