What happens here
At the worksite, the two chainsaws are unloaded from the UTV bed. The operator then dons all necessary personal protective equipment (PPE): a chainsaw helmet with integrated ear protection and face shield, work gloves, and bright orange chainsaw chaps for leg protection. The log splitter's Honda GX series engine is started via a pull cord and allowed to warm up, then the hydraulic controls are tested.
Goal: Prepare the workstation and ensure operator safety.
