I have used a (small) CS when a chain broke and seen a chain break inside a cut while a tree was being cut down. Both were pretty much non-events. In the first case the chain just sort of fell off the bar into the cut (lucky I guess?) and in the second it was the tree moving back that pinched the chain the bar so the chain had nowhere to go anyway
I realize that probably no two chain breaks are the same but when a chain breaks on a chainsaw being used in a mill what typically happens?
Where does the chain usually break and where does it go?
Can anyone relate an actual experience, including how much of the chain came out of the cut?
Not paranoid, just want to be aware of what might eventuate.
Thanks
