How to choose Hedge Trimmers
When choosing a new hedge trimmer, there are a few factors to consider. First, you need to consider the size of the trimmer head. Smaller trimmer heads are best for trimming small hedges. Larger heads are good for larger, taller hedges.Second, you should consider the cutting setting. The cutting set refers to the blades thickness. Most trimmer heads have a range from 1.5mm to 3mm. A thicker blade provides greater cutting power, while thinner blades are better suited to smaller hedges.
Also, be sure to consider the power source. Most hedge trimmers are powered by either electricity or gas. Electric trimmers are typically less noisy and more convenient to use. However, gas-powered trimmers can provide greater cutting power, and are often more powerful.
How to maintain Hedge Trimmers
Maintenance of your hedge trimmers is necessary to keep the blades sharp, maintain proper cutting length, and prevent the blades from wearing down. Before using your hedge trimmers, inspect and clean the blades, oil the gearbox, sharpen the blades, and replace any damaged or worn blade parts.- Inspect the blades: Before using your hedge trimmers, inspect and clean the blades. Do this by detaching the blade, cleaning it, and then reattaching it to the trimmer head.
- Oil the gearbox: Once the blades are clean, use a drop or two of oil on the gearbox.
- Sharpen the blades: If the hedge trimmers blades are dull, they can cause excessive damage to the tree or shrub you are trimming. Sharpen your blades by taking them to a professional, or sharpening the blades yourself with a whetstone.
- Replace any damaged or worn blade parts: If your hedge trimmers have damaged blades or any kind of metal-to-metal contact, the blades can permanently damage the machine.
- Check your trimmers manual for maintenance guidelines.
