PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
Personal equipment
Consult your dealer when selecting protective equipment.
Before using the stump grinder, you may in many cases need to cut back to object with a
power saw. Hence, it is appropriate to use personal protective equipment that fulfils
requirement for working with both stump grinders and power saws.
The main difference is that you should wear protective glasses when operating the stump
grinder while the wire mesh visor gives sufficient .protection when using a power saw. Thus
when using the stump grinder, we recommend using both a wire mesh or visor to protect
your face and protective glasses. Alternatively, you can use a face guard, but it scratches
more easily and is more susceptible to soiling and fogging.
You require the following personal protective equipment:
1. Protective helmet (hard hat)
2. Ear protection
3. Face guard
4. Protective trousers
5. Protective glasses
6. Breathing protection (risk of dusty work environment)
7. Protective gloves
8. First aid kit
9. Protective boots or steel-toed shoes.
