Device for longitudinal. Chainsaw attachments are an economical solution to household and household problems. Benefits of using this option

Leading manufacturers of household and professional chainsaws offer a range of the latest models with versatile features. Represented wide choice chainsaw attachments help to use the working capabilities of the tool with more efficient.

A significant part of a fairly expensive household tool is used from time to time. The use of a chainsaw as a drive for several types of replaceable equipment allows you to mechanize labor-intensive chores with less material costs.

The list of operational capabilities of chainsaws has been expanded and successfully implemented due to removable additional equipment. It includes nozzles and devices for various purposes.

Most of the assortment of nozzles is focused on completing branded models. The possibilities of budget chainsaws in this regard are very limited.

  • Even a small set allows you to mechanize a significant part of the chores associated with special processing wood and metal, drilling wells, caring for ornamental shrubs.
  • The use of the saw as a outboard motor, lawn trimmer, power cutter or household compressor.
  • The efficiency of the use of replacement equipment is facilitated by stable traction characteristics and the efficiency of power units, the adaptation of branded chainsaw equipment to difficult climatic factors.

In practice, it has been proven that chainsaws of leading brands can be successfully operated in a wide temperature range.

Combination of angle grinder and power cutter


The universal attachment grinder is driven from the drive shaft of the drive sprocket through a V-belt drive. The device is attached to the saw body with studs designed to fix the saw bar.

The diameter of the emery wheel is selected depending on the engine power and the features of the work to be done. Nozzle petrol cutter UShM-1 perfectly copes with abrasive cutting of natural and artificial tile-facing materials, metals, cleaning of welding joints.

UShM-1 works with standard and diamond wheels up to 20 cm in diameter, with a bore of 22 mm. An abrasive nozzle for cutting metal can be a good addition to the tools of a home workshop or a small car service equipment.

Chainsaw as a drive for a light boat

The popular "Outboard motor" attachment is activated by means of a gearbox and pulley extension, which is mounted in place of the drive sprocket. Depending on the engine power, a boat equipped with a two- or three-blade propeller can pick up speed up to 20 km / h.

Drilling and compressor equipment

Simple design and easy-to-use ice screw attachment winter time used in fish farms to supply air to frozen ponds. The effectiveness of the use of combined equipment has been confirmed in practice.

Lightweight, compact and sufficiently productive ice drill is included in the equipment kit for amateur winter fishing. As a result of natural selection, a high demand for the most successful developments.

In particular, excellent operational properties characterized by a motor drill MB-2 Ice. The nozzle is driven through a reduction gear that reduces the shaft speed to 150 rpm. This model differs from similar analogs by the minimum installation time, ranging from 5 to 10 minutes.

The replaceable nozzle of the compressor is inferior in terms of operating parameters to many mobile household-class units. Nevertheless, for aeration of small stocked reservoirs, the operation of pneumatic paint saws and sprayers, its performance is more than enough.

Interchangeable equipment for working with wood


Milling and drum nozzles for removing tree bark and cleaning construction wood from surface irregularities are represented by several types.
The most famous models are Bark beetle and Debarker, with a working grip from 80 to 100 mm. The Koroder nozzle is specialized in extended cutting of construction wood. With it, you can plan logs, cut out cups and mounting grooves.

The equipment is used in wooden construction for pre-assembly processing of industrial wood. Products are equipped with removable knives that can be easily dismantled for sharpening cutting edges and a set of elongated threaded fasteners. The bark beetle nozzle is activated from a pulley, which is installed instead of the drive sprocket.

With the appropriate drive power, bark attachments can be used to remove knots, sharpen stakes, create corner locks for log cabins.

With fine tuning, the bark beetle interchangeable device can be used as a planer attachment. The quality of the surface treatment of construction wood is determined by the sharpening of the cutting edges of the replaceable knives.

Devices for longitudinal sawing of construction wood

In the standard version, for longitudinal and diagonal cutting of wood, they are used with a certain sharpening angle. No less efficient and productive special devices.

A fairly durable attachment for longitudinal sawing, which does an excellent job of sawing logs and boards, costs about 2,000 rubles. This is the approximate cost of four saw chains which have a very limited lifespan.

Replaceable household equipment


This list includes devices designed for the care of ornamental shrubs and lawns. The brush cutter attachment will help to tidy up a living fence or clear the area from young growth in a short time.

The removable rotary trimmer attachment is inferior to a household lawn mower only in terms of ease of operation. Its design allows you to process lawn areas with a sufficiently high quality and in the shortest possible time.

Traction devices


The cable “Winch” installed on a powerful chainsaw is characterized by wide functionality. The traction force of the nozzle varies in the range up to 2 tons, the radius of action is up to 30 meters.

In the operational capabilities of the traction device:

  • skidding of fallen trees;
  • pulling out stuck vehicles;
  • lifting works and movement of non-standard cargo by dragging or using rollers;
  • plowing heavy soils on hard-to-reach land for tractor equipment.

Willingly complete their cars with chainsaws with winch equipment motorists living in regions with bad roads.

Chainsaw as a pumping unit


The autonomy of the petrol drive is highly valued in irrigated areas. Compact and mobile pumping units are effectively used to supply water to areas located at a great distance from power sources.

Such devices are in particular demand in private and small-scale production farms, for irrigating crop areas, as well as drawing water from wells and artesian wells.

Alternative developments

As the popularity of replacement chainsaw equipment grows, new options are being developed. The list of proposals was replenished with several types of removable nozzles Wood splitter. The device is a rotating conical rod with a screw thread.

Advantages of interchangeable nozzles

In the first case, there is a significant savings on the purchase of a set household tools for different purposes.

  • The price of several nozzles is 2-3 times less than the cost of a standard set. In terms of functionality, many branded models are not inferior to highly specialized household counterparts.
  • Replaceable nozzles for chainsaw equipment occupy less space, prompt replacement of a standard saw bar with any interchangeable equipment, if you have the skills and the appropriate tool, is done within a few minutes.
  • The use of nozzles increases the payback of the chainsaw several times. The tool that is most often used for harvesting fuel wood can be used to solve many household and construction problems.

Flaws

The technical and operational characteristics of chainsaws are focused on a given level of workloads and special operating modes. Some owners of prestigious professional chainsaws oppose the use of attachments.

Refusal is motivated by necessity long work engines at maximum speed, in some cases - a lack of torque, a forced reduction in the overhaul life.

As a result of the research, models of cable winches, bark cleaners, wood splitters and compressors were recognized as nozzles that are safe for the resource and technical condition.

  • In particular, work with angle grinders, the air intake filter is intensively clogged.
  • Installation of boat equipment and pump nozzle involves long time operating a high-speed chainsaw engine at maximum speed.

These shortcomings are partially or fully compensated by the increased wear resistance of modern power units, an increase in the actual motor resource of chainsaws from 1500 to 2000 or more hours. The use of heat-resistant branded motor oils also positively affects the durability of engines.


A huge number of domestic and industrial tasks require sawing wooden logs. For this, a whole arsenal of auxiliary equipment has been created, most of of which is very expensive, why is it used only in last resort. It is much easier to use a chainsaw for this, for which all kinds of auxiliary tools have also been invented, which greatly simplify not only the process of harvesting firewood, but also spreading logs onto boards even without the help of a stationary sawmill. In this article, we will talk about what they are and what is required for their independent production.

Classification of accessories for a chainsaw for sawing logs

Depending on the direction in which sawing will be carried out, all existing chainsaw nozzles are divided into 2 broad groups:

  • for longitudinal sawing of the forest;
  • for cross sections.

Both categories represent whole line industrial adapters that allow you to get boards and lumber of the required size, which can then be used for construction or repair.

When no factory options are available, the only Right way- make their analogues at home.

It is based on enough simple design- a regular frame that is attached to the guide on both sides. If you make fasteners with only one, the cutting accuracy will be impaired, but this will not hurt to adapt such boards for the construction of utility rooms or wooden fences. Let's consider it step by step.

    1. As in the other case, we begin our work with drawings. They are the basis of factual material and the source of the correct course of work.
    2. We are looking for a frame for the future device (it can be an ordinary children's desk or a square pipe). It is desirable that the cross section be at least 2 x 2 cm, or even slightly larger.
    3. We begin to make clamping elements. Their size should be at the level of 0.5-0.6 m. One of the end sides of each of them should become the basis for the aggregation of the next mechanical unit - the crossbar. It is best to weld it for greater reliability.
    4. In the already welded cross member, a series of holes are made with an electric drill, floor bolt ties. There should be a small protrusion in its center so that you can fully clamp the tire.

  1. From above, we also weld similar fasteners, the photos of which you see on the right of the text.
    What else should be taken care of at this stage? When designing such clips, it is desirable that the height of the bar be somewhat less than the width of the bolts.
  2. We begin to assemble the support frame. It does not have to be an exact square shape. IN ideal its length is 1 dm more than its width.
  3. It is necessary to attach two structural parts with a length of at least 0.1 m to its two sides in a perpendicular plane. This size is determined by the need to supplement them with clamps and tightening bolts. To this end, a hole is made again with a drill, and the nuts themselves are welded into the base. For ergonomics, you should also think about the handle, which can also be welded from improvised metal material.
  4. The moment of the assembly itself, but here too there must be a clear technological concept. First of all, clamps are inserted into the groove elements, after them - the guide of the petrol tool, which must be very accurately fixed. How to choose correct distance? This is already regulated purely individually, depending on the thickness of the material with which you want to get the output.

Agree that such a course of action is very simple, and the most difficult, surprisingly, may be the lack of an electric welding house, on the basis of which the entire home-made cycle is built.

We make goats for sawing firewood with a chainsaw on our own

Wood processing, the purpose of which is to prepare firewood for the winter, cannot do without a well-known device - a goat, which not only facilitates this manipulation, but also allows you to do it yourself without attracting additional human resources. Every self-respecting homeowner, faced with such moments, is simply obliged to acquire such a “helper”, which does not mean buying it. Like other devices, you can make it yourself, but how - we will consider in order.

    • We draw up a work plan with a detailed drawing so that this machine comes out geometrically correct. To simplify, we suggest that you familiarize yourself with the design, the leading parameters of which have already been calculated and marked in the photo below.

      • We select durable Consumables, among which:
        • wooden bars;
        • columns made of strong wood;
        • metal profile;
        • metal pipes, rods and other things that make up the group of "home scrap metal".
      • Combining the above materials or choosing only one of the types according to the drawing, they proceed to the assembly of this auxiliary equipment.
      • The optimal height of the goat is considered to be 1 meter, although given parameter adjustable depending on the height of the sawyer, the power of the chainsaw and the size of the wooden trunks that will be settled on it.

Each of the methods described, although it will lead to the final goal, still has one significant drawback - the lack of guarantees of personal safety, so this needs to be taken care of additionally.

Nozzles and accessories for chainsaws

Various factors contribute to this wide range of chainsaw performance. First of all, this is the presence of a powerful (in relation to its mass), compact, reliable and unpretentious gasoline engine capable of operating in the most difficult conditions. Diaphragm carburetor and sealed allow the saw to work in different positions, with the possible exception of fully inverted. Successful design centrifugal clutch reliably protects systems from overloads and breakdowns. The ease of power take-off is also important; It is easy to connect any device to the output shaft of the tool. And finally, the advantages of a chainsaw include autonomy, which allows you to use it anywhere.

However, do not forget that amateur chainsaws are not designed for the whole day in intensive mode..

Headgear-benzorez

Its main unit is a bearing unit with a shaft, at one end of which a driven pulley is installed, driven by a V-belt, on the other. Mandrel for fastening cutting discs. Depending on the brand of the latter, a gasoline cutter can cut metal, stone, brick or tile. The end part of the nozzle is made with a groove for attachment to the saw.

Dekbarers

According to the design, the separators are divided into a drum and a disk. The former serve mainly to remove bark from logs (carriers), the disk cuts mounting grooves, cups, grooves, etc.

The working part of the devices consists of a drum or cutter fixed in a bearing assembly. Like most chainsaw nozzles, the legs are driven by a V-belt drive. On their axis for this there is a driven pulley. When choosing the diameters of the pulleys and changing the engine speed using the accelerator, you can get the optimal speed of the working tool, which provides the necessary processing parameters.

The figure below shows legs with a different shape of the working tool: a milling cutter for sampling grooves (a), a flat plane (b) and a spherical (d), cutting figure (c).

pump

The principle of operation of this nozzle on a chainsaw is similar to the principle of operation of all centrifugal pumps. A hose is connected to the central connection (1), which is lowered into the water. A pressure hose is connected to the fitting (3). Before starting work, the plug (2) is filled with water necessary to start the pump. As the pump turbine rotates, a reduced pressure is created at the suction nozzle, suction water, which is then discharged through the pressure hose.

Carriage for longitudinal cutting of logs

Description of homemade fixtures For longitudinal cutting logs chainsaw, which is at home

fixture for sawing logs into boards with a chainsaw.

The speed of rotation of the auger during drilling must be relatively small, so a gearbox is used to reduce the number of revolutions. It can be made in the form of a V-belt or a worm (preferred).

winch

Devices for longitudinal sawing
(mini lumber)

Vertical log cutter. The simplest is the vertical log sawing deviceshown below.

It consists of an adapter (1) attached to the bar at its base and a guide (2) that determines the straightness of the adapter's movement. The guide is mounted on a board (3) which, in turn, is attached to the lumber.

The main purpose of this chainsaw tool. ensure a straight bus line. With it, you can not only dissolve a log into two or four parts (quarters), or cut a beam, but also see it on boards or in squares. However, in the latter case, every time you have to move the board out of the guide, it is impossible to achieve great accuracy when sawing. The non-fixed end of the bar can be displaced to the side, as a result of which the stability of the parameters and the complete parallelism of the sides of the beams or boards are unlikely to be achieved.

Horizontal cutting device. Using the device shown in the photo below, the magazines are cut horizontally. Compared with the vertical cutting device, it has increased functionality and accuracy, allowing you to cut boards or uneven rods of the same thickness.

The device is attached to the bus in two places. beginning and the end. has a frame design that ensures the rigidity of the device. The attachment point (1) can be moved along the bar. This allows you to set the desired incision width (log diameter). within the tire length. Guides (2) can be installed at any distance from the bar, thus ensuring required thickness cut beams or boards. The first horizontal sawing is carried out using a guide frame (3) which is mounted on the log and serves as base surface for guides (2). For subsequent cuts flat surface(4) obtained from the previous pass is used as base surface. During operation, in order to avoid clamping the saw, the wedges are inserted into saw blade, which prevents cutting the incision.

If it is necessary to cut logs with a diameter that exceeds the length of a standard bar, a more complex device is used that uses a long bar. In this case, the chain itself does not provide high quality lubrication of the entire chain, so there is a need for an additional system consisting of a reservoir and a hose that supplies grease to the end of the bar. To provide gravity, the tank is placed on a column above the tire.

The chainsaw is a device that is phenomenal in its capabilities. There is hardly any other tool that can compete with it in terms of breadth of use. Chainsaws are designed primarily for sawing wood, but their use is not limited to this. They are widely used as a universal drive for devices of the most for various purposes. With the help of chainsaws, they cut metal and stone, drill wells, pump water, pull out stuck vehicles, swim, etc. The potential of chainsaws is realized with the help of various nozzles and devices.

Several factors contribute to such a wide range of work performed by chainsaws. First of all, this is the presence of a powerful (in relation to its weight), compact, reliable and unpretentious gasoline engine that can work in the most difficult conditions. The membrane type of the carburetor and the sealed fuel supply system allow the saw to work in different positions, except perhaps for complete inversion. The successful design of the centrifugal clutch reliably protects the systems and components of the chainsaw from overloads and breakdowns. The ease of power take-off is also important; it is easy to connect any device to the output shaft of the tool. And finally, the advantages of a chainsaw include autonomy, which allows you to use it anywhere.

However, do not forget that amateur chainsaws are not designed to work all day in intensive mode..

Nozzle-petrol cutter

One of the most popular, perhaps, is a nozzle that turns a chainsaw into a power cutter.

Its main assembly is a bearing assembly with a shaft, at one end of which a driven pulley is installed, driven by a V-belt, at the other - a mandrel for fixing cutting wheels. Depending on the brand of the latter, a power cutter can cut metal, stone, brick or tile. The end part of the nozzle is made with a groove for attaching it to the saw.

debarkers

Clean the log from bark, branches and growths, choose a longitudinal or transverse groove in it, cut out cups in logs during the construction of wooden log cabins, flatten the rounded surface and many other operations can be performed using nozzles called debarkers.

By design, debarkers are divided into drum and disk. The former serve mainly to remove the bark from logs (barkers), with disc cut out mounting grooves, cups, recesses, etc.

The working part of the devices consists of a drum or cutter fixed in a bearing assembly. Like most chainsaw attachments, debarkers are driven by a V-belt drive. On their axis for this there is a driven pulley. By selecting the diameters of the pulleys and changing the number of engine revolutions using the accelerator, it is possible to obtain the optimal rotation speed of the working tool, which provides the necessary processing parameters.

The figure below shows debarkers with various form working tool: cutter for grooving (a), flat planer (b) and spherical (d), curly cutter (c).

Pump

A nozzle designed for pumping water can be used for emergency water supply at home, watering a garden, draining a flooded basement and foundation pit, etc. It is a conventional centrifugal pump equipped with a bracket with holes for attaching to a chainsaw and a pulley to drive the pump turbine into rotation.

The principle of operation of this nozzle on a chainsaw is similar to the principle of operation of all centrifugal pumps. A hose is connected to the central fitting (1), which is lowered into the water. To the fitting (3) is attached pressure hose. Before starting work, the plug (2) is filled with water, which is necessary for the pump to start pumping. When the pump turbine is brought into rotation, a reduced pressure is created in the suction pipe, sucking in water, which is then discharged through the pressure hose.

Boer

A motor drill is a device that is useful in any household, but it is used relatively rarely, which makes its purchase not always advisable. Buying a drill attachment for a chainsaw will cost less than buying a motor drill.


Chainsaw drill. Two different nozzles.

The speed of rotation of the auger during drilling must be relatively small, so a gearbox is used to reduce the number of revolutions. It can be made in the form of a V-belt or worm (preferably) transmission.

Winch

The chainsaw powered winch can be used to carry out the most various works: pulling stuck vehicles, moving trees, lifting and moving building materials, towing boats and boats on land, in various emergencies.

Its pulling force depends on the power of the chainsaw and can reach 1500-2000 kg, and even more with an additional block. To perform its functions, the winch must be equipped with additional accessories: a retractable block to increase traction and change the trajectory of movement, hooks, anchors, slings for fastening to a tree trunk, rock, soil or car.

boat motor

A chainsaw with a special nozzle can be used as a boat motor. A boat-mounted device with a three-bladed propeller and a gearbox with a gear ratio of 2: 1 is capable of moving through water at a speed of up to 20 km / h with a fuel consumption of 1 l / h.

Devices for longitudinal sawing of logs
(mini sawmills)

Most chainsaw attachments are designed for ripping logs. Their differences from each other are in the location of the cut (vertical or horizontal), in the diameter of the sawn logs, the accuracy of the cut, and ease of use.

Device for vertical sawing of logs. The simplest is the device for vertical sawing of logs, shown below.

It consists of an adapter (1) attached to the tire at its base, and a guide (2) that sets the straightness of the adapter's movement. The guide is mounted on the board (3), which, in turn, is attached to the sawn log.

The main purpose of this chainsaw attachment is to ensure that the tire moves in a straight line. With its help, you can not only dissolve a log into two or four parts (quarters) or cut a beam out of it, but also saw it into boards or beams. However, in the latter case, you will have to rearrange the board with the guide each time, and you will not be able to achieve great accuracy when sawing. The loose end of the tire can move to the side, as a result of which the constancy of the parameters and the complete parallelism of the sides of the bars or boards is unlikely to be achieved.

Device for horizontal cutting. Using the device shown in the photo below, logs are cut in a horizontal plane. Compared to the vertical sawing device, it has increased functionality and accuracy, allowing you to cut boards or beams of the same thickness.


Device (other) for dissolving logs on boards

The device, attached to the tire in two places - the beginning and the end - has a frame structure that ensures the rigidity of the device. The attachment point (1) can move along the bar. This allows you to set the required cutting width (according to the diameter of the log) - within the length of the tire. Guides (2) can be installed at any distance from the rail, thus providing the required thickness of the cut bars or boards. The first horizontal cut is made using a guide frame (3) mounted on the log and serving as a base surface for the guides (2). Subsequent cuts use the flat surface (4) from the previous pass as the reference surface. In the process of work, in order to avoid clamping the saw, wedges are inserted into the cut, preventing the narrowing of the cut.

If it is necessary to cut logs whose diameter exceeds the length of a standard tire, a more complex device is used that uses a long tire. In this case, the native saw lubrication system does not provide high-quality lubrication of the entire chain, so there is a need for a device additional system, consisting of a reservoir and a hose that supplies lubricant to the end of the tire. To ensure the supply of oil by gravity, the tank is placed on a rack above the tire.

Sawing logs into boards with a chainsaw is quite convenient and simple method wood work. Due to the presence of various nozzles, the master receives materials that have a smooth and flat surface. It is easy to make boards on your own, it is not necessary to contact specialized stores.

Benefits of sawing logs with a chainsaw

The method of sawing logs with a chainsaw has several advantages.

The ability to work under any conditions - the chainsaw is not afraid of moisture, so specialists can saw logs during rain, the equipment will not deteriorate in this case.

High productivity - it is allowed to work on wood throughout the day, but keep in mind that the power of the device must be at least 7 horsepower.

Autonomous device - the equipment runs on gasoline, does not depend on electricity, workplace mounted on any site where it will be more convenient to carry out the process.

Ease of use - the chainsaw is equipped with soft start and by adjusting the speed of rotation of the chain, these conditions provide a high-quality result for beginners in this matter.

The undoubted advantage is that the equipment is much cheaper than a small sawmill. During a breakdown, repairs are inexpensive and do not take much time.

Types of working nozzles

Sawing logs with a chainsaw is carried out different ways, masters work with wood along the fibers, as well as across it. It all depends on what nozzles are used in the chainsaw.

Longitudinal cutter

It is used for sawing logs along, the process takes place in a horizontal position. After work, the master receives the same thickness of the product. Finished materials exposed, after that the boards are used in construction.

By appearance the device is a frame small size, it is attached to the tire on each side.

Sawing with a light nozzle

Method is no different high performance but is used quite often. The element is fastened on one side, but the workpieces are slightly uneven. Such materials are necessary for the construction of sheds or fences.

Drum debarker

With the help of such a nozzle it is easy to dissolve the log, it works due to the V-belt transmission. It is attached to the belts on both sides, for this purpose special pulleys are used. The speed of rotation of the shaft depends on the size of the pulleys, so the performance of the nozzle is easy to change.

This technology forces the master to carefully monitor each stage of the process, some specialists use an assistant during this cut. But this option requires increased security measures.

Features of a homemade sawing option

Cutting a log into boards is easy with a do-it-yourself tool. Making the equipment is easy:

  • As a support, a frame should be used from school desk or a pipe with a section in the form of a square, its optimal size is 20 × 20, and more is allowed.
  • Build two clamps, mount a cross member with two holes for tie bolts at one end, make a protrusion for the tire in the middle.
  • For longitudinal sawing of a log into boards, it is important to make a support frame, its width must be 7-8 cm less than the length.
  • Then two elements 10 cm long are welded to both sides, holes are made for the bolts, a handle is attached in the middle for ease of operation.
  • After that, insert the clamps into the grooves, the tire is installed, everything is carefully fixed.

To Work with homemade tool it’s not difficult, this will require two goats, they will serve as a support, and it is also necessary to prepare a metal rail or board, the element will be a guide element. A log is laid from below, the required height for work is adjusted.

Log sawing technique

Longitudinal sawing is carried out using a horizontal nozzle. To get the boards even, it is important to use a specially prepared guide, its role is played by a metal rail or a high-strength board.

The most difficult thing in this process is to make the first cut, for this you need:

  • Mount the leading ruler, it consists of two boards fastened together at an angle of 90 degrees.
  • Install the log on supports, firmly fix its position.
  • Check if the log is lying flat with a level.
  • Using self-tapping screws, fix the leading ruler to the supports.
  • In a horizontal position, fix another guide, the element will rest against the ground, but at the same time fix the log.
  • Saw the log.

During the second cut, specialists may not use the leading ruler, the resulting board will serve as a guide. The second cut is carried out perpendicular to the first.

Cross cutting secrets

The cross saw is used to obtain firewood or decorative elements interior. Sawing is carried out according to the following principles:

  • Place the log in a horizontal position on wooden supports, the height should be 0.5 m.
  • To clean it from the bark.
  • Using an ax or a saw, make small marks along the entire length, they should be located at the same distance from each other.
  • Make cuts along the cuts.

Cross cutting does not require the use of special tools or nozzles. An ordinary chain is perfect for such work, but its rings must be strong.

Safety

When working with a chainsaw, you must follow the safety rules, they will help to avoid injuries and unpleasant situations:

  • Do not allow people, especially children, to enter the work area.
  • When working with circular saw be sure to put on a special protective cover.
  • During the process of sawing logs, you should use means of protection against sawdust and noise.
  • It is necessary to have a first aid kit with medicines to treat the wound during cuts.
  • Do not pour gasoline into the heated tank of the chainsaw.
  • It is necessary to use a chainsaw only for its intended purpose, it is forbidden to turn it on full power if it is not in operation.
  • Installation of logs is carried out only on the right side.
  • While working with the equipment, it is strictly forbidden to put pressure on it with force.

If safety precautions are observed, the work will be simple, and as a result, high-quality material will be obtained without harm to health.

The chainsaw is a versatile piece of equipment that is easy to use. Its masters can use on personal plot, in a private house. In addition to receiving boards, it is used for repair work outbuildings and wooden elements decor. A large number of boards is not needed, it is enough to take a couple of logs.
