Mend Craftsman Chainsaw Fuel

Craftsman chain saw?

Running too rich. Seems to need less fuel. There are an "H" and an "L" adjustment visible. Do one of these need to be moved 1/4 turn cw or ccw?

L is low speed mixture, H is high speed. Start the saw, idle when warm and screw the L adjuster in until the saw falters then screw out until the best tickover is achieved - adjust the tickover so the chain doesn't turn. Rev the knackers off it and adjust the H setting, screw in or out until a slight faultering or burbling is heard and this is a slightly rich mix which will stop seizure.
