Your hedge trimmer is designed such that the powerhead
can separate from the hedge trimmer attachment by
turning the knob

latching button

is a mechanical coupling that will spin if the powerhead is
turned on. This coupling can cause injury if contacted while
the powerhead isoperating.
NOTE: Ensure the attachment is fully engaged and the
knob is fully tightened before operating. Check for proper
engagement and tightness duringuse.
