Assembly And Adjustment - Dolmar PS-CS Instrucciones De Manejo

• Never work on a ladder or tree to avoid loss of control.
• If the equipment gets heavy impact or fall, check the condition
before continuing work. Check the fuel system for fuel leakage
and the controls and safety devices for malfunction. If there is
any damage or doubt, ask Dolmar authorized service center for
the inspection and repair.
• Do not touch the gear case. The gear case becomes hot during
operation.
• Take a rest to prevent loss of control caused by fatigue. We
recommend to take a 10 to 20-minute rest every hour.
• When you leave the equipment, even if it is a short time, always
switch off the engine or remove the battery cartridge. The
equipment unattended with the engine running may be used by
unauthorized person and cause serious accident.
• Follow the instruction manual of the power unit for proper use of
the control lever and switch.
• Pay attention to the environment. Avoid unnecessary throttle
operation for less pollution and noise emissions. Adjust the
carburetor correctly.
• During or after operation, do not put the hot equipment onto dry
grass or combustible materials.
• Do not hold the equipment above shoulder height.
• During operation, never hit the saw chain against hard obstacles
such stones and nails. Take particular care when cutting
branches next to walls, wire fences or the like.
• Never touch or approach the saw chain while they are moving.
Saw chain can cut your finger easily. When handling the saw
chain, stop the motor and remove the spark plug cap or the
battery cartridge.
• If the saw chain becomes clogged, always switch off the motor
and remove the spark plug cap or battery cartridge before
cleaning.
• Accelerating the motor with the saw chain blocked increases the
load and will damage the motor and/or clutch.
• Before cutting limbs, keep an escape area away from the falling
limb. First, clear obstructs such as limbs and branches from the
work area. Move all tools and goods from the escape area to
another safe place.
• Before cutting branches and limbs, check the falling direction of
them, considering the condition of branches and limbs, adjoining
trees, wind direction, etc. Pay full attention to the falling direction.
• Never hold the pole saw at an angle of more than 60°.
Otherwise falling objects can hit the operator and cause
serious injury. Never stand underneath the limb being cut.
• Pay attention to broken or bent branches. They may bounce back
in cutting, causing unexpected injury.
• Before cutting limbs that you intend to cut, remove branches and
leaves around them. Otherwise the saw may be caught by them.
• To prevent the saw from being caught in the kerf, do not release
the throttle lever before pulling the saw out of the kerf.
• If the saw chain is bound in the kerf, immediately stop the motor,
carefully move the branch to open the kerf and release the saw.
• Accelerating the motor with the saw chain bound increases the
load and will damage the motor and/or clutch.
• Avoid kickback (rotational reactive force towards the operator).
To prevent kickback, never use the guide bar nose or perform a
penetrating cut. Always beware of the position of the guide bar
nose.
• Check the chain tension frequently. When checking or adjusting
the chain tension, switch off the motor and remove the spark plug
cap or battery cartridge. If the tension is loose, tighten it.
Transport
• Before transporting the equipment, switch off the motor and
remove the spark plug cap or battery cartridge. Always fit the
chain cover during transportation.
• When transporting the equipment, carry it in a horizontal position
by holding the shaft. Keep the hot muffler away from your body.
• When transporting the equipment in a vehicle, properly secure
it to avoid turnover. Otherwise fuel spillage and damage to the
equipment and other baggage may result.
Maintenance
• Before doing any maintenance or repair work or cleaning the
equipment, always switch off the motor and remove the spark
plug cap or the battery cartridge. Wait until the motor gets cold.
• To reduce the risk of fire, never service the equipment in the
vicinity of fire.
• Always wear protective gloves when handling the saw chain.
• Always clean dust and dirt off the equipment. Never use gasoline,
benzine, thinner, alcohol or the like for the purpose. Discoloration,
deformation or cracks of the plastic components may result.
• After each use, tighten all screws and nuts, except for the
carburetor adjustment screws.
• Keep the saw chain sharp. If the saw chain has become blunt
and cutting performance is poor, ask Dolmar authorized service
center to sharpen it or replace it with new one.
• Do not attempt any maintenance or repair not described in this
booklet or the instruction manual of the power unit. Ask Dolmar
authorized service center for such work.
• Always use Dolmar genuine spare parts and accessories only.
Using parts or accessories supplied by a third party may result
in the equipment breakdown, property damage and/or serious
injury.
• Request Dolmar authorized service center to inspect and
maintain the equipment at regular interval.
Storage
• Before storing the equipment, perform full cleaning and
maintenance. Fit the chain cover. Remove the spark plug cap or
the battery cartridge. Drain the fuel and chain oil after the engine
gets cold.
• Store the equipment in a dry and high or locked location out of
reach of children.
• Do not prop the equipment against something, such as a wall.
Otherwise it may fall suddenly and cause an injury.
First aid
• Always have a first-aid kit close by. Immediately replace
any item taken from the first aid kit.
• When asking for help, give the following information:
– Place of the accident
– What happened
– Number of injured persons
– Nature of the injury
– Your name

Assembly and adjustment

WARNING:
• Before assembling or adjusting the equipment, switch off the
engine and remove the spark plug cap or the battery cartridge.
Otherwise the saw chain or other parts may move and result in
serious injury.
• Before handling the saw chain or adjusting the chain tension,
wear protective gloves. Otherwise the saw chain can cut bare
hands severely.
• When assembling or adjusting the equipment, always put it down.
Assembling or adjusting the equipment in an upright position may
result in serious injury.
• Follow the warnings and precautions in the chapter "Safety
precautions" and the instruction manual of the power unit.
Assembling the attachment (Fig. 5)
Assemble the attachment as the following steps.
