It's a flail.
I have not seen chains as flails, would seem to be the weak link (pun intended)...
Not that this guy would do it, but the broken chain hurtling backward is also a hazard. His guard is only for keeping the debris from covering the operator.
All three of my flails have full 180deg covers and side covers as well.
