Most chainsaw accidents occur when the saw chain
touches the operator. You must use approved
personal protective equipment during operation.
Personal protective equipment does not give you
full protection from injuries but it decreases the
degree of injury if an accident occurs. Speak to your
servicing dealer for recommendations about which
equipment to use.
Your clothing must be close-fitting but not limit your
movements. Regularly do a check of the condition of
the personal protective equipment.
Use an approved protective helmet.
Use approved hearing protection. Long-term
exposure to noise can result in permanent damage
to the hearing.
Use approved protective glasses or a face visor
to decrease the risk of injury from thrown objects.
The product can throw objects, such as wood chips,
small pieces of wood and more, at large force. This
can result in serious injury, especially to the eyes.
Use gloves with saw protection.
Use pants with saw protection.
Use boots with saw protection, steel toe-cap and
non-slip sole.
Always have a first-aid kit with you.
Risk of sparks. Keep fire extinguishing tools and a
shovel near to prevent forest fires.
