Out of box engines are flush with needles, and 1.5mm Air gap( throttle opening, idle speed). LSN turn CW till bottom out, then 4 turns CW. 3.5 to save time.

Sorry misstated. HSN Flush or 3.5 CCW from closing. LSN Flush. Air gap 1.5mm. Note that this doesn't tune the engine, but it does get it running. Your manual should these starting points.

HSN Fine. LSN always depends on location, altitude, Weather. LSN always the last adjustment. Where are you located?
