Chainsaw Safety Course Monday, October 23, 2017 9:00 am - 11:00 am Cornell Cooperative Extension of Warren County (377 Schroon River Road Warrensburg, NY 12885) Chainsaws are among the most useful and dangerous outdoor power tools owned and operated by landowners. Severe injuries include deep, jagged lacerations embedding foreign substances resulting from direct contact with the chain saw; strains and sprains from improper handling; and contusions concussions and/or fractures caused by being struck by objects while cutting. Improper long term use may result in loss of hearing and diminished nerve sensitivity.
