that have been altered, may result in the battery bursting
causing fires, personal injury and damage. It will also

Tips for maintaining maximum battery life
1. Charge the battery cartridge before completely
discharged.
Always stop tool operation and charge the
battery cartridge when you notice less tool
power.
2. Never recharge a fully charged battery cartridge.
Overcharging shortens the battery service life.
3. Charge the battery
temperature at 10°C – 40°C (50°F – 104°F).
Let a hot battery cartridge cool down before
charging it.
4. Charge the battery cartridge if you do not use it

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the bat-
tery cartridge is removed before adjusting or checking
function on the tool.
Installing or removing battery cartridge (Fig. 1)
CAUTION:
• Always switch off the tool before installing or removing
of the battery cartridge.
• Hold the tool and the battery cartridge firmly when
installing or removing battery cartridge.
Failure to hold the tool and the battery cartridge firmly
may cause them to slip off your hands and result in
damage to the tool and battery cartridge and a per-
sonal injury.
To remove the battery cartridge, slide it from the tool
while sliding the button on the front of the cartridge.
To install the battery cartridge, align the tongue on the
battery cartridge with the groove in the housing and slip it
into place. Insert it all the way until it locks in place with a
little click. If you can see the red indicator on the upper
side of the button, it is not locked completely.
CAUTION:
• Always install the battery cartridge fully until the red
indicator cannot be seen. If not, it may accidentally fall
a
out of the tool, causing injury to you or someone
around you.
• Do not install the battery cartridge forcibly. If the car-
tridge does not slide in easily, it is not being inserted
correctly.
Switch action (Fig. 2)
CAUTION:
• Before installing the battery cartridge into the tool,
always check to see that the switch trigger actuates
properly and returns to the "OFF" position when
released.
To prevent the switch trigger from being accidentally
pulled, a lock-off button is provided.
To start the tool, depress the lock-off button and pull the
switch trigger. Release the switch trigger to stop.
Checking the chain brake (Fig. 3)
NOTE:
• If the chain saw fails to start, the chain brake must be
released. Pull the front hand guard backwards firmly
until you feel it engage.
Hold the chain saw with both hands when switching it on.
Hold the top handle with your right hand, the front handle
with your left. The bar and the chain must not be in con-
tact with any object.
First press the lock-off button, then the switch trigger.
The saw chain starts immediately.
Press the front hand guard forwards using the back of
your hand. The saw chain must come to an immediate
standstill.
CAUTION:
• Should the saw chain not stop immediately when this
test is performed, the saw may not be used under any
circumstances. Consult a DOLMAR specialist repair
shop.
