section “Mounting Guide Bar and Chain” of this manual.
DOLMAR chain, guide bar and sprocket must match each
other (see the appropriate section in this manual).

Proper tension of the chain is extremely important. In
order to avoid false setting the tensioning procedure
must be followed as described in this manual. Always
make sure the hexagonal nut(s) for the sprocket
guard is (are) tightened securely after tensioning
the chain. Check chain tension once more after
having tightened the nuts and thereafter at regular
intervals (always before starting to work). If the chain
then tighten. Never try to tighten the chain while the
engine is running!
Fueling
Your DOLMAR saw uses on oil-gasoline mixture for fuel
(see chapter “Fuel” of this manual).
check for leakage.
Check for fuel leakage while refueling and during op-
eration. If fuel or oil leakage is found, do not start or run
wiped away. Clothing with fuel on it has to be changed
immediately (this is a danger to your life!).
Avoid skin contact with fuel. Never loosen or remove the

Fueling instructions
Fuel your chain saw in well ventilated areas or out-
before refueling. Select bare ground for fueling and
move the chain saw at least 10 feet (3 m) from fueling
in an open area. Maintain a good balance and secure
footing. Place your right foot through the rear handle
Be absolutely sure that guide bar and chain are clear of
you or all other obstructions and objects, including the
ground, because when the engine starts in semi-throttle
position, engine speed will be fast enough for the clutch
to engage the sprocket and turn the chain which may
cause a kickback.
Never attempt to start the saw when the guide bar is
in a cut or kerf.
When you pull the starter grip, don’t wrap the starter
rope around your hands. Do not allow the grip to snap
back, but guide the starter rope slowly back to permit the
rope to rewind properly. Failure to follow this procedure
the starter mechanism.
