Important Safety Features
To reduce the incidence of serious chainsaw accidents, manufacturers have added some significant safety features. Chain brake: A chain brake is designed to stop chain movement if kickback occurs. Typically, the chain brake activates when the chain brake lever is bumped by the operator’s hand when it is jarred by the kickback of the tip of the chain when it fails to bite into the intended piece of wood or binds and bounces off its surface.

Eye Protection
In addition to champagne corks turned missile projectiles and badly caught softballs, eye injury occurs most often from activity around the home. The most common style of safety glasses, or eye protectors, consists of clear plastic over-sized glasses with side and top panels.
