Download or read book The Comprehensive Chainsaw Maintenance Guidebook written by Steven Maichak and published by . This book was released on 2020-01-02 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: About this book: A chainsaw is arguably the most effective tool a person can use to fell trees and clear brush. They're effective, efficient, portable, and can be used in all types of settings. In short, chainsaws are the best teammate a sawyer can have when tasked with felling, bucking, and limbing trees. However, keeping a chainsaw running at its fullest potential requires a lot of attention to detail during routine maintenance. As Abraham Lincoln is quoted as saying, "give me six hours to chop down a tree and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe." Thankfully, we're now a far cry from resorting to axes to take down and process trees, but the principle still holds true. You have enough to worry about when operating your chainsaw. Your saw's maintenance shouldn't be one of them. The Comprehensive Chainsaw Maintenance Guidebook is your one-stop source for all the guidance, tips, and tricks you will need to properly maintain your chainsaw and keep it running at peak performance for years to come. About the author: Steven first learned the basic principles of chainsaw safety, operation, troubleshooting, and maintenance while on an AmeriCorps conservation crew. He went on to sharpen his saw skills while fighting wildfires as a lead sawyer on a fuels crew with the Bureau of Land Management. While with the BLM, he also gained valuable experience as a lead sawyer on a dedicated six-man saw team as part of a twenty-man hand crew. Steven is partial to the medium and larger displacement Stihl saws as those are what he used most during his work experience. His favorites are the full wrap MS 362, 044, and MS 461 models using 22-24" bars for their ability to cut through larger diameter fuels while still being relatively lightweight.
Download or read book The Chainsaw Safety System written by Chuck Oslund and published by Chuck Oslund. This book was released on 2019-06 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chuck Oslund has spent years teaching proper chainsaw safety to a diverse group of professionals. Over that time, he developed a process based on the principle that chainsaws and the environment in which they are used can only be made so safe, but each operator has the ability to eliminate all accidents. That's right. No accidents-zero.Chuck asserts, with the proper equipment and operator attitude, all chainsaw accidents could be eliminated with this bottom-up, tiered approach to cooperative behavioral safety.In The Chainsaw Safety System, Chuck shares a proven method for preventing chainsaw accidents by use of a team-based approach to increase the operator's perception and provide the tools for creating a "Personal Safety System" that has the potential to eliminate chainsaw accidents in each application.As trees become victims of disease and storms, the need for safe and reliable chainsaw operators is greater today than ever before. In fact, statistics show that more people are injured cleaning up after a storm than in the storm itself. Everyone benefits when storm cleanup and timber harvesting are done properly.In these pages, you will learn a chainsaw safety system based on the combination of statistically assimilated safety practices, state-of-the-art training, and historical knowledge woven into an affirmable, teachable, and measurable system focused on work in the high-risk environment of cutting wood with a chainsaw.The Chainsaw Safety System will give you a new, broader perspective on chainsaws, trees, and coworkers. In fact, it will test your integrity and help you train your brain to naturally recognize risks and neutralize them. The chainsaw may be as safe as it's going to get, but our brains continue to evolve and learn. We can eliminate chainsaw accidents-if we each put our mind to it and talk about the danger.
