Yes, wearing gloves when using a chainsaw is highly recommended. While it may not be a legal requirement, gloves serve as an additional layer of protection against potential injuries. They help dampen the vibration from the saw, reducing fatigue and discomfort during prolonged use. Moreover, chainsaw gloves provide a barrier against minor cuts and abrasions, safeguarding the hands from harm.
The different classes of chainsaw gloves are categorised according to EN standards. The primary standard to consider is EN 381-7, which assesses gloves' suitability for use with chainsaws. Gloves are classified into four classes based on their performance against moving chainsaws at different speeds: Class 1 (16 m/s), Class 2 (20 m/s), Class 3 (24 m/s), and Class 4 (28 m/s). Each class represents the level of protection offered, with higher classes indicating better protection. Gloves must carry the EN 381-7 standard mark to demonstrate compliance and ensure they have undergone necessary testing.
To determine the right size of chainsaw gloves for you, measure your hand across the palm. Typically, 8cm corresponds to a small size, 9cm to a medium size and 10cm to a large size.
