[QUOTE="_CY_, post: 916600, member: 7629"] chainsaw nut here... run everything from a Stihl 84 (120cc) to Stihl MS200T (top handle saw) my favorite is a Stihl 046 .... for protection ... highly recommend Labonville 10ply competition chaps [url]http://www.labonville.com/shop/pc/viewPrd.asp?idproduct=406[/url] [b][Broken External Image][/b] most chaps will only reduce damage from chainsaws... these 10ply chaps will stop chainsaw chains running at full bore (see link below) with no injury. no protection will be 100% effective, but these 10ply Labonville chaps offer the max protection available. here's a link to Madsens a Pro Saw shop that did cut tests on chaps stuffed with hams. [url]http://www.madsens1.com/chaps.htm[/url] along with chaps a good hard hat with ear muffs to prevent hearing loss. then kevlar gloves and a Stihl chainsaw protective shirt ... if I'm doing really hazardous like taking down storm damaged trees partially down. here's a chart that shows where chainsaw injuries occur. the most dangerous areas will be protected by chaps. note the large number of injuries to the left hand. this is why I wear kevlar gloves. kickback can come back at you much faster and stronger than most realize. one needs to operate saw with body off-set to chainsaw and avoid using top front of bar near tip.
