This page covers machinery used in forestry or arboriculture (that isn't either a chainsaw or a vehicle) and handtools.
While this equipment does not cause as many serious accidents as chainsaws, there are still accidents and risks that you need to assess and control.
Ensure that no-one uses this equipment unless they are trained and competent to do so.
