- To Start: Press and hold the safety switch (usually located on the handle) with one hand, then squeeze the trigger switch with the other hand. The trimmer will begin operating.
- To Stop: Release the trigger switch. The safety switch can then be released.
4.2 Selecting Speed Modes
The trimmer offers three speed modes to suit different cutting needs:
- Lower Speed (e.g., 2000 SPM): Ideal for lighter trimming tasks and extending battery life.
- Higher Speed (e.g., 3000 SPM): Provides maximum power for thicker branches and faster cutting.
Use the mode selection button on the tool to cycle through the available speeds.

- General Trimming: Hold the trimmer with both hands, keeping the blade parallel to the hedge. Use a sweeping motion to cut evenly.
