SAFETY PRECAUTIONS Power chain saws This power chain saw may be used only for sawing wood out Protective gloves (6) made of thick leather are part of of doors. It is intended for the followung uses depending on its the prescribed equipment and must always be worn during class: operation of the chain saw.
Fuels / Refuelling Stop the engine before refuelling the chain saw. Do not smoke or work near open Þ res (5). Let the engine cool down before refuelling. Fuels can contain substances similar to solvents. Eyes and skin should not come in contact with mineral oil products. Always wear protective gloves when refuelling.
Kickback - When working with the chain saw dangerous kickbacks may occur. Kickback occurs when the upper part of the end of the guide bar inadvertently touches wood or other hard objects (10). This causes the saw to be thrown back toward the user with great force and out of control.

Be careful when cutting splintery wood. Cut pieces of wood may be pulled along (risk of injuries). When cutting with the upper edge of the guide bar, the chain saw may be pushed in the direction of the user if the chain gets clamped.
All other work must be carried out by DOLMAR Service. Use only original DOLMAR spare parts and accessories. Using spare parts other than original DOLMAR parts or ac- cesories and guide bar/chain combinations or lengths which are not approved bring a high risk of accidents. We cannot...
Fuel tank capacity 0,28 Chain oil tank capacity 0,22 Mix ratio (fuel/two-stroke oil) - when using DOLMAR oil 50 : 1 - when using Aspen Alkylat (two-stroke fuel) 50 : 1 (2%) - when using other oils 50 : 1 (quality grade: JASO FC or ISO EGD)
PUTTING INTO OPERATION CAUTION: Before doing any work on the guide bar or chain, always switch off the engine and pull the plug cap off the spark plug (see „Replacing the spark plug“). Always wear pro- tective gloves! CAUTION: Do not start the saw until it has been completely assembled and inspected! Mounting the guide bar and saw chain Use the universal wrench delivered with the chain saw for the...
Lift the chain (9) over the sprocket (10). Using your right hand, guide the chain into the top guide groove (11) on the guide bar. Note that the cutting edges along the top of the chain must point in the direction of the arrow! Pull the chain (9) around the sprocket nose (12) of the guide bar in the direction of the arrow.
In order to guarantee uniform wear of the guide bar the bar should be turned over whenever replacing the chain. Chain brake The PS-3410 comes with an inertia chain brake as standard equipment. If kickback occurs due to contact of the guide-bar tip with wood (see SAFETY PRECAUTIONS, page 6), the chain brake will stop the chain through inertia if the kickback is sufÞ...

Adjusting the chain lubrication The engine must be switched off. You can adjust the oil pump feed rate with the adjusting screw (1). The amount of oil can be adjusted using the universal wrench. Recommended settings: - 25 cm guide bar - 30 cm guide bar - 35 cm guide bar - 40 cm guide bar...
Starting the engine Start the chain saw only after having assembled it com- pletely and inspected! Move at least 10 feet (3 m) away from the place where you fuelled the saw. Make sure you have a good footing, and place the saw on the ground in such a way that the chain is not touching anything.
Turn adjusting screw (S) clockwise (screw in): Idle speed increases. Important: If the saw chain still moves during idle even after you have adjusted the idle speed, do NOT use the saw. Take it to a DOLMAR service centre!
MAINTENANCE Sharpening the saw chain CAUTION: Before doing any work on the guide bar or chain, always switch off the engine and pull the plug cap off the spark plug (see „Replacing the spark plug“). Always wear protective gloves! The chain needs sharpening when: The sawdust produced when sawing damp wood looks like wood ß...

All cutters must be sharpened to the same angle, 30°. Different angles result in a roughly, irregularly running chain, increase wear and tear and cause chain beakage. The front rake of the cutter results from the cut depth of the round Þ...
Cleaning the sprocket interior, checking and replacing the chain catch sleeve CAUTION: Before doing any work on the guide bar or chain, always switch off the engine and pull the plug cap off the spark plug (see „Replacing the spark plug“). Always wear protective gloves! CAUTION: Do not start the saw until it has been completely assembled and inspected!
Replacing the saw chain CAUTION: Use only chains and guide bars designed for this saw (see the Extract from the spare-parts list)! Check the sprocket (7) before mounting a new chain. Remove the sprocket guard (see ”PUTTING INTO OPERATI- ON” A-H) CAUTION: Worn out sprockets (8) may damage the new chain and must therefore be replaced.
Replacing the spark plug CAUTION: Do not touch the spark plug or plug cap if the engine is running (high voltage). Switch off the engine before starting any maintenance work. A hot engine can cause burns. Wear protective gloves! 0,5 mm The spark plug must be replaced in case of damage to the insulator, electrode erosion (burn) or if the electrodes are very dirty or oily.
Replacing the return spring unit Remove and reinstall the fan housing and cable drum (see ”Replacing the starter cable”). Carefully remove the return spring unit (9) from the fan housing. CAUTION: Danger of injury! If the spring is broken it can jump out! Carefully Þ...
We therefore recommend that you consult a DOLMAR service centre for all work not described in this instruction manual. The DOLMAR service centres have all the necessary equipment and skilled and experienced personnel, who can work out cost- effective solutions and advise you in all matters.
