Every fall people are seriously injured or killed by chain saw accidents. As winter approaches many people are cutting firewood and cleaning up brush and debris. A properly operated chain saw can be a very effective power tool. However, a chain saw in the wrong hands can be an absolutely lethal tool. By using the proper safety equipment and following safe chain saw practices you can use a chain saw safely.

Recommended Chain Saw Safety Equipment
  • Combo Helmet with Orange Hard Hat, Face Screen & Earmuff
  • Premium Cowhide Leather Work Glove
  • Chain Saw Chaps
  • Chain Saw Protective Boots with Steel Toes
Safe Chain Saw Practices
  • Always hold the chain saw with two hands
  • Never over-reach while using a chain saw
  • Never cut above shoulder height
  • Never operate a chain saw when you're tired or under the influence of drugs or alcohol
  • Always use a sharp chain
  • Make sure your chain break is working properly
  • Never walk with a running chain saw
So if you own a chain saw and you're planning on cutting some wood this fall please take a few minutes to check your equipment and think about safe chain saw practices. I often think about a co-worker who nearly cut off his foot from a chain saw accident. The accident was a result of working while tired. Stay safe and enjoy the outdoor work.
