You must check to see of your carb still has the limiter caps still fitted. Just shine a torch down the holes and look for either plastic red screw caps or black metal slotted head.

 

If metal, screw the screws all the way on lightly and then unscrew one turn out.

 

The H screw is critical, make sure it is a good and accurate one turn out.

 

If you have limiters, there are settings but just aim for the middle position between the fully in and fully out position. This full turn is typically 3/4 of a turn, if it is much more then the limiters may have been damaged so again go very careful on the H screw. Too far in and it will seize

 

 

Common fuel issues on a 460 are fine wood chip on the internal gauze filter under the large dingle screw cover on the carb or fine sawdust under the diaphragm cover on the other side.

 

The 460 is a good saw and do not worry about the banter on here:001_rolleyes:
