It is good for a chain saw user to adopt the correct and safe sawing rules. This reduces not only the risk of personal injury but also their own efforts and increases the quality of their own work.
 

 

Basic rules

These rules include the chain saw user's attitude. It should be safe and comfortable. This allows proportional stalling, reduction of the center of gravity and proper saw hold.
 
In every situation, it is necessary to have the chain saw under control. Holding the saw should be firm but not spastic. It is imperative that the thumb of the left hand always be under the left tube handle.
 
When moving, even in a safe area, it is necessary to stop the engine.
 
The chain saw must not be raised above the operator's breast. It can not be branched by the end of the guide rail. When cutting thicker branches, it is only necessary to use the chainring.


Required equipment for chain saw user

To make the chain saw safe, it is imperative that the saw user has adequate protective equipment. These include protective helmets, hearing protectors, safety glasses, tight working clothes, working gloves, hard shoes, optimally with steel tips.
Hardware
 
To cut and cut trees, we need not only chain saws, but also cutting wedges, spare parts for routine repairs. We may also need an ax or rope. Of course, the canister is a fuel mix suitable for power saws.
 

Tip:

We work with a chainsaw most often during a period of vegetation, it is a period when it is out of the ordinary and harsh, and therefore, the user should also have in mind his own thermal comfort. Cold in combination with fatigue can result in damage to health or property.
