2. Safety Information
Chainsaw operation carries inherent risks. These gloves are designed to reduce the risk of injury but do not guarantee complete protection against all hazards. Always follow proper chainsaw operating procedures and wear all recommended personal protective equipment (PPE).
- The left-hand glove features a 12-layer chainsaw stopper fabric on the back, providing extra cut resistance and protection to the EN381-7 Class 1 standard (20 m/s chain speed). This material is designed to clog the chainsaw mechanism upon contact, stopping the chain.
- High visibility orange material on the back enhances user visibility.
- Ensure gloves fit properly to maximize protection and dexterity.
