>>1477313>He flipped the chain>he fucked upNo, anon. You are the one that fucked up. When someone hands you a tool to use, you must inspect it completely. Never assume the tool is in working order in any manner. In fact, that aspect should be taught in the class and should also be a trick to catch you up when you do the test. An instructor should also stop you before you do something, if that thing you are doing will be wrong or you didn't discover the trick. That way you don't injure yourself. As for your other mistakes, it seems you just need to make a mental checklist of things. Number them, write them down, read the list, close your eyes and imagine going through each step in order one at a time like you are actually doing it for real. Don't skip, don't fast forward, just walk yourself through it over and over in your mind.
Another thing, chainsaws are wickedly dangerous as fuck. They will kill you if you fuck up even one thing. That's no joke and not fear mongering. That's just a historical fact. Don't use one if you are nervous. You need to be calm. Don't use one if you are tired. You need to be rested. Wear proper PPE. Take things slowly.
