equipment, including protective gloves, non-slip footwear,
safety goggles, ear defenders, and close-fitting clothing.
2. You are holding the unit firmly with both hands. Your right
arm is slightly bent and is holding the rear handle, and
your left arm is straight and is holding the front handle.
3. You are standing with proper footing and are holding the
hedge trimmer so that the cutting blades are always away
from your body.

The secondary switch on the front handle can be activated
on all three sides, together with the 180 degree rotatable rear
handle, providing comfortable grip when performing cutting
