After you carefully read the instructions, wear 9-layer wraparound chaps, cut-retardant shirt, forestry helmet, and chainsaw gloves, and you pay attention like as if you are on a gun range, you will have reasonably mitigated the risks. Most accidents happen when people grow complacent and don't take what they are doing seriously; even with all the PPE you can still screw up in a serious way if you aren't careful, deliberate and paying attention. I encourage anyone who is scared of chainsaws to read the literature. Even occasional users can make it a safe activity with some diligence.
