Use The Proper Protective Chainsaw Gear

Starting up your chainsaw can be dangerous enough. Actually running it, though, brings with it a whole slew of other dangers and that is why manufacturers recommend using protective gear. From the tip of your head down to the soles of your feet, you are going to need protection. The brand and size of the saw don't matter; it's always important to stay safe.

There are many ways to get hurt while cutting wood with a chainsaw. Branches can spring suddenly loose and whip toward you with a lot of speed and force. They can break bone, but your face is also at risk. The engine of the saw is very loud and can cause damage to your inner ear. Wear a black helmet with hearing defenses.

Helmets are particularly important if you are on the ground with workers above you. Equipment and tools can fall and cause serious injury. They could even kill you. The proper chainsaw helmet will spread the force of impact, like a motorcycle helmet. Getting hit by a falling limb will then cause a slight headache, but no permanent damage.

Maybe you use an Echo chainsaw and want to use that brand for the rest of your gear. Go ahead, but remember that it is not necessary. The gear, unlike chains, is interchangeable. You wear it on your body, so it can be used with any brand of saw.

With your head and ears safe, we turn to the eyes. Some chainsaw operators will use full safety goggles; others rely on a face mask. The mask attaches to the helmet like a visor, blocking flying wood chips from getting to your face. If your chainsaw is spitting sawdust, you need to sharpen your blade. The large lattice allows full visibility while blocking the detritus flying off the blade.

Finally, you have to put something on your legs and feet. There are full trousers made from protective fabric, or chaps for the part-time sawyer. For the feet, any leather boot with hard, steel toes will offer adequate protection.

I doesn't make a difference what type of saw you prefer. You can use a McCulloch chainsaw with protective gear from Stihl. They will work just fine together and provide you with the same level of safety. Many areas actually require you to use the proper safety gear. Check with the authorities in your area and always obey the law!
