0 a large saw with a motor and teeth-like parts fitted onto a continuous chain, used especially for cutting trees
By the mid-1950s, chainsaws were in use for felling and cutting trees and skidder tractors with caterpillartype tracks employed in road-making and for hauling logs.
The chainsaw and other modern techniques have been a mixed blessing.
Information on the number of injuries caused by persons coming into contact with a chainsaw is in table 1.
It has even been described as the "chainsaw charter".
We have heard about chainsaws, but there are many other examples.
Vegetation has been removed with chainsaws; and specially adapted rolling stock, with mounted flails, has been used to cut through huge swathes of land.
However, we have some particular problems with this piece of legislation, and in particular with chainsaws and the like.
Once again, the first that people knew about the work was when they heard the chainsaws and saw the trees coming down.
