01
TAP URGENCY: MODERATE—paper cutter uses collar leverage in cutting motion
02
Release immediately when partner taps; the cutting motion can lock rapidly
03
Apply pressure gradually through the collar cutting rather than suddenly
04
Partner communication is important as sensation may differ from standard collars
05
Tap on sensation of collar cutting or carotid pressure building progressively
