0 a large saw with a motor and teeth-like parts fitted onto a continuous chain, used especially for cutting trees -- (尤指伐木用的)链锯
Vegetation has been removed with chainsaws; and specially adapted rolling stock, with mounted flails, has been used to cut through huge swathes of land.
The chainsaw and other modern techniques have been a mixed blessing.
However, we have some particular problems with this piece of legislation, and in particular with chainsaws and the like.
Chainsaws are vital for managing woodlands.
Act 1974 requires that employers must ensure that anyone who uses chainsaws or other dangerous machinery, including students in an educational establishment, should first receive appropriate training and instruction.
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 amendment would regulate, for the first time, emissions from small, off-road petrol engines, such as those used in lawnmowers, chainsaws etc, by means of two stages of emissions limits.
There must also be a much fuller information pack to go to garages and so forth; nor must we forget the problems of garden machinery, outboard motors and chainsaws.
