Attention:
* No PPE can provide total protection against injury due to a chainsaw. The degree of protection
depends on numerous factors (e.g. speed of the chainsaw, engine torque, angle at which the bar
contacts the glove, working position –stooping or upright, etc...)
* This cut retardant glove is no substitute for safe operation of a power tool. Incorrect use of a power
tool can result in accidents. It is therefore essential to observe all local safety regulations, standards and
ordinances as well as the safety precautions and instructions given in the owner’s manual of your power
tool. It’s responsibility of the employers together with the user to analyze if each glove protects against
the risk that can appear in any given work situation.
* This glove is provided with pads constructed from several layers loose woven material, so that, when
in contact with a moving chain, the threads are torn out and clog the chain saw drive mechanism. DO
NOT REPAIR OR STITCH THROUGH THE PROTECTIVE MATERIAL
HOWEVER, no item will provide full protection, therefore never intentionally let the chain make contact
with any part of this glove. Remember a chainsaw is a machine which should always be treated with
extreme caution according to the instructions of the chainsaw supplier (use both hands!!)
In order to optimize the protection this glove should always be worn with suitable shoes, clothing, helmet,
ear protectors. The cut-retardant material in protective gloves helps provide protection only if it has not
been pinched, twisted or modified. It is therefore important to take this into account before choosing a
specific working technique.
Before using the chain saw consult your supplier to ensure that your protective clothing is compatible
with the machine. Gloves shall not be worn when there is a risk of entanglement by moving parts of
machines.
* Ensure that this safety glove is not damaged by sharp or pointed implements (saw chain, thorns, metal
tools, etc. ) as well as aggressive substances, such as acids, oil, solvents, fuel, animal excrements , etc.
It must also be kept away from hot objects (exhaust mufflers, etc. ) and other heat sources (naked lights,
heaters, etc.). This protective glove has been designed for the users of handheld chainsaws. It does not
provide protection against other risks (e.g. other areas of operation such as construction work, contact
with electric energy/current, when operating cut-off machines, pressure washers , etc.)
* Only gloves of a suitable size will guarantee a secure grip. Gloves which are either too loose or too
tight will restrict the movements and will not provide the optimum level of protection. Please note that
moisture can affect the grip of the gloves.
* Never stitch through the protective pad, because then the long fibres won’t be easily removed from the
pad to clog the drive mechanism of the chain saw.
* When not in use, store the gloves in a well ventilated area away from extremes of temperature. If the
gloves are wet, reshape it by hand and allow it to dry fully before placing it into storage.
* The protective material and area of coverage must not be altered. If the gloves are damaged it will no
longer provide the optimum level of protection, and therefore should be replaced immediately. Damaged
gloves should be immediately destroyed or marked to prevent them from being worn again. NEVER
wear damaged gloves.
*Advisory lifespan depends on the level use, care, storage. UV light, soiling. Less intensive use extend
the lifespan accordingly.
* Always check the condition of the product before each use.
Care instructions
Washing not allowed.
Bleaching not allowed with product based on chlorine .

away from direct heat sources. Force drying can cause deterioration of the materials.
