The introduction of saw protection to the left hand glove is back when there were no front hand guards/chainbrakes. Since there introduction there have been very few accidents to the left other than stupidity which you cant legislate against! Gloves with saw protection are now a waste of money imho. The code of conduct was introduced by manufacturers as a conciliation to hse and other similar euro agencies who were all set to effectively ban the sale of them in europe. I suspect it has had little affect on reducing injuries as top handle sales are only a small percentage of overall chainsaw sales even though the risk of injury is slightly higher with a TH saw than a back handle due to the increased difficulty in controlling kickback. the risk is in the nature of the operation itself, a novice user is almost as likely to injure themselves with a back handle saw as a top handle one in the same circumstance. That said, it must surely be better for the industry overall to limit sales as much as possible to the professional!

not so long ago, clarkson would have been able to get away with it but since Jonathan ross, bbc have proved that they cannot accept this kind of bs. wossy is worming his way back to the beeb but his bbc tv career is finished. no single tv show is bigger than the bbc...TG could be the example that needs to be set (across all channels)

TG has had its day in the current format...they are struggling for content clearly. hammond and clarkson are has-beens. cant decide on may!

just ask your dealer for a loan for a few days of the models you want to test. only you can decide if its right for you and your operations.

change to the breather system (old one vents into the air filter mount / manifold) and the air gap between the flywheel and coil was reduced to 0.2 from 0.3
