What will you be cutting, and how safe do you want to be? I wear steel toed boots, chaps, glasses, and rubberized gloves every time I saw. When felling or working in the woods, I wear a logger's helmet.

Chain and oil maintenance, keeping it out of the dirt, and, most importantly, keeping wood from moving or touching the tip of the bar are essential.

ugh, I wrote a long reply that got lost somehow- in short- I want to be very safe. i used and electric one to fell a few small trees. my property has some downed trees to cut up. some flat, some leaning. my use will be occasional but I know that there's a lot I don't know, up cuts, relief cuts... avoid the tip....
