PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
Personal equipment
Consult your Husqvarna dealer when selecting protective equipment. Our dealers have a broad assortment of equipment for professionals such as forestry workers and knowledge about occupational environment requirements and protective levels.
Before using the stump grinder, you may in many cases need to cut back the object with a power saw. Hence, it is appropriate to use personal protective equipment that fulfils requirements for working with both stump grinders and power saws.
The main difference is that you should wear protective glasses when operating the stump grinder while the wire mesh visor gives sufficient protection when using a power saw. Thus when using the stump grinder, we recommend using both a wire mesh visor to protect your face and protective glasses. Alternatively, you can use a Plexiglas face guard, but it scratches more easily and is more susceptible to soiling and fogging.
You require the following personal protective equipment:
1.Protective helmet (hard hat)
2.Ear protection
3.Face guard
4.Protective trousers
5.Protective glasses
6.Breathing protection (risk of dusty work environment)
