To change the feed quantity use the universal wrench and adjust

the adjusting screw (page 13, H/1) in the following way:

‑ Turn to the right to reduce the feed rate.

‑ Turn to the left to increase the feed rate.

To ensure troublefree operation of the oil pump the oil guide

groove at the crank case (A/3) and the oil inlet bore in the

guide bar (A/4) must be cleaned regularly.

Starting the engine

To make it easier to start, the chain saw DCS411 are equipped

with a semi‑automatic starting valve (C/5). Pushing this valve

in reduces the amount of compression effort needed, so that it

is easier to bring the engine up to starting speed when pulling

the starter cable. The high pressure increase in the combustion

chamber that results from the rst ignitions will automatically

close the starting valve (button pops back out).

ModelsDCS410donothaveastartingvalve.Startingand

carburetor adjustment are as for model DCS411 except

withouttheinstruction"Pushthestartingvalve".

‑ Move at least 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.

‑ Engage the chain brake (lock).

‑ Hold the tubular handle tightly with one hand and press

the chain saw to the ground.

‑ Steady the rear handle by standing in the hand guard.

Cold start:

‑ Put the short‑circuit ignition switch in the "

I" position (C/1).

‑ Press the choke up (

C/2).

‑ Press and hold down the half‑throttle lock button (

C/3).

‑ Press the throttle (

C/4) slightly. The half‑throttle lock (C/3)

will arrest it.

‑ Release the grip. The throttle is now locked in half‑throttle

position.

‑ Push the starting valve (

C/5) (only DCS411).

‑ Slowly pull out the starter cable until you notice resistance

(the piston is positioned before the top dead centre).

‑ Now pull the starter cable with a fast and forceful move-

mentuntilyouheartherstignition.

CAUTION: Do not pull out the starter cable more than

approx. 50 cm, and lead it back by hand.

‑ When you hearthe rst ignition, pushthechoke (C/2)

down. Push the starting valve again (only DCS411) and pull

the starter cable. As soon as the engine is running, press the

throttle (C/4) to release the half‑throttle lock (C/3), allowing

the engine to idle.

CAUTION: As soon as the engine is started it must be put

in idle to prevent the chain brake from being damaged.

‑ Now release the chain brake.

Warm start:

‑ As described above for cold starting, but without using the

choke (C/2).

Stopping the engine

‑ Put the short‑circuiting switch (C/1) in position "O"

(STOP).

Checking the chain brake

Donotworkwiththechainsawwithoutrstcheckingthe

chain brake!

‑ Start the engine as described (make sure you have a good

footing, and place the chain saw on the ground in such a

way that the guide bar is free of contact).

‑ Grasp the tubular handle

rmly with one hand and hold the

grip with the other.

‑ With the engine running at moderate speed, press the hand

guard (D/6) in the direction of the arrow with the back of your

hand until the chain brake engages. The chain should stop

immediately.

‑ Immediately release the throttle and release the chain

brake.

IMPORTANT: If the chain does not stop immediately when

you test the chain brake, do notusethechainsaw.Take
