Starting the
Hedge Trimmer
As a safety feature, this trimmer has dual
trigger switches. One trigger switch is
located on the rear handle and the other
trigger switch is located on the front handle

trigger switches to operate the trimmer.
WARNING: Do not modify this
trimmer to bypass the dual trigger
