It really doesnt matter, as the saw self limits the rpm with a secondary rev limiter, so it is cooling and adding extra oil on the non-ignition event strokes. If the saw doesnt have a reset done, in the course of 10-20 cuts (in my experience) it will find its tune, but may run slightly...

Also, if saw is 2.0 it usually wont have any markings from memory, but on the emmissions lable there will be an M3.0 if its 3.0, see on this ms261

Whilst i can get an approximately accurate edge on a drill bit by hand that impresses the coworkers, i have not been able to get the split accurately, or a precise 118° angle for a non split... so i find it easier to use the Dr...LOL
