General safety instructions
WARNING:
sure you understand the instructions before you use the product.
WARNING:
Use of this product does not decrease the need for safe operation of the
chainsaw.
Carefully read all safety instructions applicable to your chainsaw.
The required level of protection is dependent on several parameters, such
as working techniques, the power of the chainsaw, the sharpness of the
chain, the chain speed, and the angle and contact force when in contact
with PPE (chain speed is only one parameter in the test rig; a chain
speed of 20 m/s in the test does not necessarily correlate with a hand-held
chainsaw being operated at 20 m/s; this should be taken into account,
together with the experience of the user when selecting suitable PPE).
A jacket's maximum protection will only be available when the garment is
fully closed.
Make sure that the saw protection of the protective clothes overlaps the
saw protection of the footwear, or the gloves.
The condition of the protective equipment should be checked regularly.
The garment should be scrapped and not used again if the protective
material has been damaged, incorrectly washed, altered from its original
shape. The protective qualities may be reduced in these cases.
Damaged outer material must be repaired immediately in order to prevent
the protective material becoming damaged.
Keep the protective clothes away from sharp objects, acids, oils, solvents,
fuels and animal droppings.
Clean the protective clothes immediately in case it has been subjected to
petrol, oil, grease or other flammable materials. Fire hazard!
For maximum protection, it is important that the correct size is selected.
Garments should be selected so that they do not restrict movement in any
way.
