Echo cs 590 base carburetor settings

[pignacious]

I have a saw that came to me in pieces, including the carburetor. It was easily put back together, but the adjustment screws had been removed. I've seen posts talking about starting anywhere from 1/4-1 1/2 turns from seated on the L screw and 1/4 to 1 on the H. I've rebuilt many carbs, but this one has been the most aggravating because of the lack of consistent information.
Thanks in advance

I have never worked on a 590, but if I were in your shoes I'd crank the idle screw in and start both needles at one turn out from lightly seated.

Would this help?

NOTE 2: Turn Idle Speed Screw CW or CCW until screw tip just touches throttle plate, then turn CW the specified number of turns.
NOTE 5: WARNING! During Warm up DO NOT exceed Maximum RPM listed to prevent engine damage from over-revving.

It just an extraction of the Echo NA carburetor setup guide that a dealer friend sent me as I was bugging him a lot for equipment tune-up setups as he knew I tuning the equipment to factory specs.

Thanks everyone. I had a new carb on order and have rebuilt the old one. Having a spare carb almost guarantees the saw will get crushed and it did. I have a new question on the forum for that.
