Chainsaw protection?

[Sevsafe]

b and c just refers to the area covered by the protective material. b is not much different to a (front protection) it was included in the EN standard just for the Finns who had experienced cuts to the femoral artery so it consists of extending the protective material by 5 cms on the inside of the right leg and the outside of the left leg. as far as i know it's not really used in the UK. The design of the garment doesn't really matter as long as the prescribed areas are protected. the only things that are specifically not allowed are separate legs i.e. the old chaps.

i sweat just sitting down in type c's..... aint wearing them unless its minus 5 or wanna go on a weight loss regime

iirc that yes you may use type a for climbing BUT you must be able to prove in your risk assessment why you deem it to safe to do so ..... heat exhaustion blah blah .... but with the new types of type c this is getting harder to prove its like the sip freedoms only have lower protection and are type a but again why use them not say stihl hiflex etc .... i think only time you can 100% get away with type a up a tree without the need for r/a modding is if a saw in not being used in harness eg silky work only ) but how many of use carry two pairs f trousers or should i say afford them.

im sure my new freedoms are all round now........
