The most common chainsaw-related injuries can be prevented by following proper safety procedures and wearing appropriate PPE. Always read the chainsaw's user manual and follow the manufacturer's instructions. Maintain proper footing and balance while operating the chainsaw. Keep both hands on the chainsaw handles at all times. Never cut above shoulder height or with the chainsaw between your legs. Always wear the appropriate PPE, including a helmet with a face shield and ear protection, chainsaw gloves, chainsaw chaps or pants, and boots with steel toes and non-slip soles.
