Introduction
This document forms part of a series concerned with personal protective equipment (PPE) designed
to protect against the risks arising from the use of hand-held chainsaws primarily constructed for
cutting wood.
The portable hand-held powered chainsaws are normally operated by electric or internal combustion
engines. Experience has shown that the specification of the fuel operated engine is difficult. In order
to be able to control the testing parameters, these problems have been eliminated by selecting the
flywheel method described in this document.
No PPE can ensure a 100 % protection against cutting from a hand-held chainsaw. Nevertheless,
experience has shown that it is possible to design PPE that offers a certain degree of protection.
Different functional principles may be applied in order to give protection. These include:
a) chain slipping: on contact the chain does not cut the material;
b) clogging: fibres are drawn by the chain into the drive sprocket and block chain movement;
c) chain braking: fibres have a high resistance to cutting and absorb rotational energy, thereby
reducing the chain speed.
Often more than one principle is applied.

resistance to cutting
various ways in which protective material prevents cutting or decelerate the chain of a chainsaw (3.4)
Note 1 to entry: It is measured by applying a moving saw chain with a certain chain speed and energy and
studying whether the chain cuts through.
4 Principles
The test rig described in this document has been designed to apply a moving saw chain to a test sample
in such a way that both the speed of the chain and the amount of kinetic energy available for cutting are
controlled.
This is achieved by ensuring that the chain is not under power at the moment of test. The equipment is
designed such that the chain is moving solely under the influence of its own momentum, together with
that of a flywheel and rotating parts of known inertia to which it is coupled.
The result of the test is then reported as to whether or not the sample shows a cut-through at the
test speed.

5 Test rig
5.1 General
The test rig consists of the following major components:
— a power unit and a connecting device that transfers rotational energy to the saw unit;
— a saw unit with a defined moment of inertia including shaft, flywheel, sprocket, chain and guide bar;
— fixture for saw unit;
— test piece mounts for samples;
— instrumentation.
Fit guards to protect users from flying debris and broken chains.
The general arrangement of the test rig is shown in Figure 1.

Figure 1 — General arrangement of test rig
5.2 Power unit and connecting device
The power unit shall be able to drive the saw chain up to a chain speed of at least 21 m/s. For testing
class 2 products, the power unit shall be capable of driving the saw chain at a speed of at least 24 m/s. For
class 3 products, the power unit shall be capable of driving the saw chain at a speed of at least 28 m/s.
For testing purposes, it is convenient that the test rig shall also be able to drive the chain at speeds as
required by ISO 11393-2, ISO 11393-3, ISO 11393-4, ISO 11393-5, ISO 11393-6 and ISO 17249. Currently,
the maximum speed specified in the ISO 11393-series and in ISO 17249 is 28 m/s (class 3).
It shall be possible to separate the power from the saw unit, see Clause 4. The separation of the powered
drive unit from the saw unit shall not affect the moment of inertia of the sprocket/flywheel assembly
and the moving chain and it shall not affect the falling action around the pivot.
In order to conduct a test, the chain is first driven up to the required speed by means of any convenient
motor. At the moment of test, the motor is then physically separated from the chain and flywheel or the

power is disconnected from the rotating parts of the saw unit excluding the sprocket. The moment of
inertia shall still fulfil the requirements of 5.3.2.3. Simultaneously, the chain is allowed to pivot down
from a minimal height onto the test sample. The chain subsequently continues to move (and under
normal circumstances, to cut into the sample) until all of its kinetic energy has been dissipated and the
chain stops.
5.3 Saw unit
5.3.1 General
The saw unit shall be able to turn freely in the vertical plane around the horizontal pivot at least in the
range 20 mm upward and 100 mm downward, measured at 360 mm from the pivot.
Certain stops may be included in order to prevent the saw chain damaging the test piece mount.
The moment of inertia of the saw unit, which means all parts turning around the pivot, shall be
2
(0,30 ± 0,05) kgm . The moment of inertia shall be calculated from the construction programme or
measured. A measuring method is described in Annex C. Ensure that no other rotating parts around the
output shaft than the defined rotating inertia will affect the falling action around pivot.
5.3.2 Components of saw unit
5.3.2.1 Guide bar
The guide bar is symmetrical 11-tooth sprocket nosed, with a nominal groove width of 1,50 mm and a
1)
nominal length of 330 mm (13”) .
The lateral stiffness of the saw unit and guide bar shall be measured at the centre of the nose wheel
of the bar, mounted in the saw unit of the test rig. Apply a load cell at the centre of the nose wheel and
adapt equipment for measuring the movement. Pull the guide bar with the load cell until a force of
(50 ± 2) N is reached. The deflection of the guide bar shall be less than 10,0 mm.
The chain tension shall be adjustable. The chain tension shall be measured with every new chain. This
measurement shall be done after having reached the chain stopping time of (4 ± 0,2) s.
The method for measuring chain tension is as follows.
a) Position a suitable clamp on the link on the uppermost edge of the guide bar immediately over
the cutting point for calibration pads (see 5.3.5). Gently lift the guide bar vertically until its own
gravitational force (15 N) is supported entirely by the one link. Measure the vertical deflection of
the chain from the edge of the guide bar and record the deflection to the nearest millimetre.
b) Release the force and remove the clamp from the link. Move the chain along by approximately
14 links and repeat step a).
c) Repeat step b) twice more until four measurements of deflection at different parts of the chain
have been recorded.
d) The range between the highest and the lowest measurement of deflection should not be more than
2 mm to ensure that the deflection at different parts of the chain is constant.
e) If this test fails, repeat both procedures until the required values are fulfilled. If this is impossible,
check the saw unit.

The moment of inertia of rotating parts around the output shaft, including the shaft, flywheel and

all rotating devices, but excluding the chain and sprocket, shall be [(0,47 ± 0,015) × 10 ] kgm . The
moment of inertia shall be calculated with the construction programme or a calculation.
The free-running stopping time without a chain shall exceed 25 s at a rotational speed corresponding
to a chain speed of 20 m/s.

Chains shall be conditioned according to 7.5.1.
