SAFETY PROTECTIVE CLOTHING
Major cases of electric chainsaw accidents
happen when the chain hits the operator.
While working with the electric chainsaw,
always use safety protective approved
clothing. The use of protective clothing does
not eliminate injury risks, but it reduces the
injury effects in case of accident. Consult
your trusted supplier to choose an adequate
equipment.
The clothing must be proper and not an
obstacle. Wear adherent anti-cut clothing.
Anti-cut jackets, dungarees and leggings are
the ideal. Do not wear clothes, scarves, ties or
bracelets that can stuck into woods or twigs.
Tie up and protect long hair (example with
foulards, cap, helmets, etc.)
Safety shoes or boots having skid-proof sole
and anti-piercing insert.
Wear protective helmet in places where there
can be falling objects.
Wear protective goggles or face screens!
Use protections against noises; for example
noise reduction ear guards or earplugs.
The use of protections for the ear requests
much more attention and caution, because the
perception of danger audio signals (screamings,
alarms, etc.) is limited.
Wear anti-cut gloves.

4. FITTING THE BAR AND CHAIN

WARNING - Remove the battery before
maintenance work. Always wear work
gloves during assembly procedures. Use
only bars and chains recommended by the
manufacturer (page 33).
