Clean and whole clothes are safe clothes. Your protective clothes are regularly exposed to sweat and oil — substances that may reach the protection layer and reduce its function.
Husqvarna protective clothes are available in many different sizes, to fit all types of loggers and challenges. We have created the size guide below to help you. Take a few moments to check your body measurements against the guide to find your right size.
WLC, the World Logging Championship, is arranged every two years when professional elite loggers from around the world compete in five different events: precision felling, changing saw chain, precision sawing with two different methods and limbing.

When starting a chainsaw you should always ensure to heed all safety precautions. Never start the saw engine without the bar, chain and clutch cover (chain brake) assembled - or else the clutch can come loose and cause serious injuries. Always move the saw away from the fuelling area before starting. Place the saw on clear ground and ensure that the chain is not in contact with anything. Also, ensure that you have a secure footing. Keep people and animals well away from the working area.
