Personal Protection Equipment

Consult your Husqvarna dealer when selecting
protective equipment. Dealers have a broad
assortment of equipment for professionals (such as
forestry workers) and knowledge about occupational
environment requirements and protective levels.
Before using the stump grinder, you may need to
cut back the object with a power saw. It is therefore
practical to use personal protective equipment that
fulfils requirements for working with both stump
grinders and power saws.
The main difference is that you should wear protective
glasses when operating the stump grinder while
the wire mesh visor is sufficient when using a
power saw. Thus when using the stump grinder, it
is recommended to use both a wire mesh visor to
protect your face and protective glasses. A Plexiglas
face guard is an alternative, but has been found
to scratch easily and is susceptible to soiling and
fogging.
You require the following personal protective
equipment:
1. Protective helmet (hard hat)
2. Ear protection
3. Face guard
4. Protective trousers
5. Protective glasses
6. Breathing protection (dusty work environment)
7. Protective gloves
8. First aid kit
9. Protective boots or steel-toed shoes
