- Power Supply
Connect chain saw to correct voltage, that is, be sure that
the voltage supplied is the same as that specified on the
nameplate of the tool (11).
- Replacement Parts
When servicing, use only identical replacement parts
(11).
- Polarized Plugs
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this equipment has
a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This
plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug
does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still
does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the
proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.
- Wear ear protectors during operation.
- Before making a felling cut, remove dirt, stones, loose
bark, nails, staples and wire from the tree.
- Secure the log so that it will not rol or move suddenly
during operation.
- AVOID UNINTENTIONAL STARTING. Don’t carry
plugged-in tool with finger on switch. Be sure switch
is OFF when plugging in.
- Attention! Do not expose this tool to rain (12) and pull
plug immediately if the supply cable is damaged or
cut (13).
- The chain saw must not be left outdoors during rain
and it must not be used when wet.
VOLTAGE WARNING:
Before connecting the tool to a power source (recep-
tacle outlet, etc.) be sure the voltage supplied is the
same as that specified on the nameplate of the tool. A
power source with voltage greater than that specified
for the tool can result in SERIOUS INJURY to the user
- as well as damage to the tool. If in doubt, DO NOT
PLUG IN THE TOOL. Using a power source with voltage
less than the nameplate rating is harmful to the motor.
Use of Extension Cord
If the extension cord is intended to be used outdoors, the cord
shall be marked with the suffix W-A following the cord type
designation, for example - SJTW-A, to indicate it is accept-
able for outdoor use. Use an extension cord heavy enough
to carry the current the tool will draw. Undersized cord will
cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and
over-heating. Make sure the extension cord is in good condi-
tion before using. Keep the cord away from the cutting area
and to position cord so that it will not be caught on branches,
and the like, during cutting. Use the table below to determine
the proper wire size required in the extension cord.
Contact DOLMAR Authorized or Factory Service Center if a
proper extension cord cannot be found.
