BLACK+DECKER chainsaw

Some safety features that can be found on chainsaws include:

1. Chain Brake: This mechanism stops chain from moving almost instantly in case of kickback occurs.

2. Throttle Lockout: This feature stops the throttle trigger from being activated accidentally by requiring the user to first engage a separate lockout button or lever before using the throttle.

3. Chain Catcher: A guard that helps to prevent the chain from coming in case it breaks.

4. Hand Guard: it protects the user's hands from the chain and debris.

5. Anti-Vibration System: Reduces the amount of vibration transmitted to the user's hands and arms minimizing fatigue.
