Automatic Safety Latch

The patented automatic blade latch is a key safety feature of this trimmer. It will lock with every complete cutting
stroke, helping to eliminate forgetfulness. Remember to always push the blade arm down completely when you
are finished cutting, to ensure that the latch activates. Never remove the latch for any reason.
