GLOVES 

Protective electrically non-conductive gloves are highly recommended when working.
Specialist chainsaw gloves with approved saw protection. 

HEARING PROTECTION 

Suitable safety hearing protection is recommended.

EYE PROTECTION 

Always wear safety glasses/goggles and/or face shields. Everyday eyeglasses have 
only impact resistant lenses; they are not safety glasses/goggles.

BOOTS 

Non-skid heavy duty footwear are highly recommended when working. Safety boots 
with toe and shin protection.

CLOTHING 

Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, scarfs, neckties or jewellery (rings, wrist watches), 
which can be caught in moving parts. Trousers or chaps suitable for chainsaw use 
(they contain a clogging material which stops the chain if cut). Close fitting hi-visibility 
jacket. Do secure long hair so that it is above shoulder level.

HELMET 

Safety helmet with mesh visor.

Appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), MUST be worn at all times when 
operating or repairing the machine. No protective equipment can ensure 100%
protection.

When selecting PPE, make sure it’s CE marked and it suits the user in terms of size, fit etc. If 
more than one item of PPE is worn at the same time, make sure they can be used together, e.g. 
wearing safety glasses may disturb the seal of a respirator, causing air leaks.
