Plug in the saw

CAREFUL!
Before connecting the saw to a source of electricity, al-

ways make sure to check that when the ON/OFF switch (1)

has been pressed in and released, it automatically comes

back out to the "off" position. If it does not, do not under

any circumstances connect the saw to a power source

- do not plug it in. Take the saw to a DOLMAR service

center before doing any work with it.

Clip the extension cord and the saw’s power cord into the cord

grip (2).
Plug the saw plug (3) into the socket of the extension cable

(4).

Using the chain saw

Always be sure of you footing and hold the chain saw firmly

with both hands while the motor is running.

Switching on the motor

- Plug in the saw (see above).
- When switching on the electric chain saw always hold it

with both hands. Take the back handle with the right hand

and the tubular handle with the left hand. Hold the handles

tightly with your thumbs facing your fingers. The bar and

chain must not be in contact with any object.

- First depress the locking button (5) and then the power

switch (1). Then release the locking button (5).

- Attention: The chain starts running immediately. Keep

the power switch depressed as long as the motor is to run.

CAUTION:
Never lock the power switch in the ON position.

Switching off the motor

- Release the power switch (1).
NOTE:
When the chain brake is actuated the power supply to the

motor will be cut off.
If the saw does not start when the ON/OFF switch (1) is

actuated, it will be necessary to release the chain brake.
- Pull the hand guard (6) firmly in the direction of the arrow

until you feel it catch.

Important:

These models are equipped with a starting current limiter.

This electronic component prevents too abrupt starting of the

electric motor.
Excess current cutoff: When the electrical current to the saw

exceeds the permissible level, the power supply to the motor

is automatically cut off. This prevents overheating of the motor

and resulting damage. To start the saw up again, release the

ON/OFF switch and press it again.
CAUTION: Do not use the saw if the current cutoff repeatedly

switches off the saw. Consult a DOLMAR service center.
