You must wear a safety helmet where there is a danger of falling branches and other objects.

You can rely on STIHL visors and safety glasses to help protect you against injury during chainsaw work, and you will certainly appreciate their secure, comfortable fit and lightweight design. The safety glasses help to absorb harmful UV rays so you maintain a crystal-clear view of your surroundings, protecting your eyes on long working days.

Using the correct ear defenders prevents damage and makes it easier to concentrate on your work. STIHL ear protectors are available in a number of varieties to match the volume of the machine at hand.

As a power tool user you need robust hand protection, preferably made from leather, to ensure you can maintain a secure grip even in cold or wet conditions. We recommend wearing cut-resistant protective gloves to help keep your hands safe.

Protection trousers are a critical part of your personal protective equipment, even if you only use your power tool occasionally. It’s also important to only wear close-fitting clothing when working with power equipment, for maximum ease of movement and to avoid anything getting caught on excess fabric.

The right footwear contributes greatly to safety while you work. You need safety boots that feature a sole with good grip, cut protection, and steel toe caps to help protect you against injury.
