HEALTH & SAFETY INFORMATION 5.1 GENERAL CHAINSAW SAFETY INFORMATION Chainsaws pose a very significant health and safety risk, even to careful and informed operators, for example, the use of a chainsaw in the workplace requires extensive training and certification. The dangers of using and applying a chainsaw should not be taken lightly. Seek guidance, training or employ a professional to carry out the task if uncertain or nervous of the potential risks and dangers involved. -

HEALTH & SAFETY INFORMATION – Remove any scrub or other obstructions from the area to enable a quick escape route and ensure visibility of the chain is not impeded during cutting. – Plan work to reduce manual lifting, i.e. lightest off cuts move furthest. –... - Page 8 HEALTH & SAFETY INFORMATION – Always perform a notch cut followed by a felling cut to create a felling hinge. Felling wedges or levers may be necessary to prevent the chainsaw from becoming pinched in the felling cut. Limbing – Ensure the tree is stable before any limbering commences.
