10.1.4 Secured working position for two-handed use
In order to be able to hold the chainsaw with both hands, you should always
try to adopt a safe working position in which the saw is guided as follows:
at hip height when sawing horizontal pieces and at
stomach height when sawing vertical pieces.
If you are working close to the vertical log with little lateral force to the
working position, a secure foot support may be sufficient for a safe working
position. However, as soon as you move away from the log, you must take
additional measures to reduce or counteract the increasing lateral forces, e.g.
by diverting the main rope via an additional suspension device (18) or by
using an adjustable sling leading from the harness to an additional suspension
device (18) (see figure A.3)
In order to achieve good foot support in the working position, a stirrup formed
from an endless sling can be used temporarily to provide support (see Figure
A.4).
