Starting the engine

A
- Move at least 3 meter away from the place where you
fuelled the saw.
- Make sure you have a good footing, and place the saw on
the ground in such a way that the chain is not touching
anything.
- Engage the chain brake (lock).
- Hold the tubular handle tightly with one hand and press
the chain saw to the ground.
- Steady the rear handle by standing in the hand guard.

Cold start:

- Put the short-circuit ignition switch in the "I" position (B/1).
- Press the choke up (B/2).
- Press and hold down the half-throttle lock button (B/3).
- Press the throttle (B/4) slightly. The half-throttle lock (B/3)
will arrest it.
- Release the grip. The throttle is now locked in half-throttle
position.
- Slowly pull out the starter cable until you notice resistance
(the piston is positioned before the top dead centre).
- Now pull the starter cable with a fast and forceful
movement until you hear the first ignition.
CAUTION: Do not pull out the starter cable more than
approx. 50 cm, and lead it back by hand.
- When you hear the first ignition, push the choke (B/2)
down. Pull the starter cable. As soon as the engine is
running, press the throttle (B/4) to release the half-throttle
lock (B/3), allowing the engine to idle.
CAUTION: As soon as the engine is started it must be put
in idle to prevent the chain brake from being damaged.
- Now release the chain brake.

Warm start:

- As described above for cold starting, but without using
the choke (B/2).

During operation there must always be sufficient chain oil in the
chain-oil tank to provide good chain lubrication. While working
make sure there is enough chain oil in the tank. If necessary,
3
add oil. The engine must be switched off!
To ensure troublefree operation of the oil pump the oil guide
groove at the crank case (H/3) and the oil inlet bore in the
guide bar (H/4) must be cleaned regularly.
Note:
After the saw has been turned off it is normal for residual chain
oil to drip from the oil feed system, the guide bar and the chain
for a time. This does not constitute a defect!
Place the saw on a suitable surface.

Stopping the engine

- Put the short-circuiting switch (K/1) in position "O" (STOP).

Checking the chain brake

C
Do not work with the chain saw without first checking the
chain brake!
- Start the engine as described (make sure you have a good
footing, and place the chain saw on the ground in such a way
that the guide bar is free of contact).
- Grasp the tubular handle firmly with one hand and hold
the grip with the other.
- With the engine running at moderate speed, press the hand
guard (C/6) in the direction of the arrow with the back of
your hand until the chain brake engages. The chain should
stop immediately.
- Immediately release the throttle and release the chain
brake.
IMPORTANT: If the chain does not stop immediately when
you test the chain brake, do NOT use the chain saw. Take
the chain saw to a DOLMAR service center.
