when yu buy a new saw yu hav too at least run it for a week then get it tuned also if yu live or work in hill country altitude will make a difference on how a chainsaw will perform because the air is thinner.
NGK sparkplugs run better than champion because of it running two stroke instead of straight

If the idle screw adjustment doesn't work then
If it hasn't had one put it in for a service.
Don't fiddle with the engine unless you know what you are doing these machines are dangerous if not used and serviced properly, and can easily cut open your leg if it suddenly races into top speed, through fiddling with the idle screw if that's not the fault.
