Did myself mid thigh rushing the first cut of the day with bad work positioning not long after I started. Was wearing chainsaw trousers which saved me some serious harm. I really don't like working working a saw without them on now.

I tested a pair...........

Working late one November afternoon, wet cold and absolutely fed up, ready for home, was brashing some rough trees for the harvester, As I stepped back into an unseen drainage ditch which was about 2 ft deep. Husky 254 flat out onto my left thigh...........

Saw stopped instantly - trousers destroyed, underwear likewise, leg completely intact

Always wear them now!!!!!!!
