Question form small engine techs 2 stroke

I'm not really sure how to adjust the carb on my chainsaw. I can twist the screws and make it scream but how do I tell if I am making it to lean? If i get a small engine tach and adjust it to a certain (what the manual says_ RPM does that mean I'm safe. I don't want to burn another saw up. I had one mess up the cylinder. I don't know if it was me or if it was the 500plus ranks of wood that it had cut.

Thanks Scott
