First of all welcome to the site.
The orange wax is a tamper proof seal that a lot of mechanic use to make sure a screw has not moved. It could void the warranty if you mess with it or it could be just to make sure the screw has not moved, if for some reason that has been a problem in the past for that type of carb.
Have you tried to call the mechanic that rebuilt the carb to ask him how to adjust the idle or low speed? Any decent mechanic should at least take the time to adjust the carb if he is going to rebuild it or answer your question if you are having problems with it IMO. If he doesn't help you by at least answering your questions I sure would not go back to him. Does the mechanic work at some local shop or just out of his garage?
