To reduce the occurrence of chain shot:
•
Follow recommendations for saw unit maintenance and
adjustments. Inspect the saw chain and cutting system
frequently. Replace damaged parts using approved
replacements.
•
Keep saw chains sharp and lubricated. Do not exceed
the maximum saw speed. Check hydraulic oil pressure
and flow rate to the saw unit after any carrier hydraulic
system repairs.
•
Discard the saw chain after the second break.
To reduce the risk of injury from chain shot:
•
Operators and bystanders should never be exposed
to the chain shot hazard zone when the saw chain is
in motion.
•
All machines in the chain shot hazard zone should be
fitted with appropriate guards, shields, and windows to
protect the operator and structures in accordance with
relevant safety standards and regulations for forestry
operations.
•
Inspect the cabin window regularly, and every time
after any impact. Replace the window if it is damaged,
cloudy, or has visible micro-cracking or crazing.
•
Inspect the chain shot guard (if equipped) each time the
saw chain is replaced. Replace the chain shot guard if
it is missing or damaged.
