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
The blades on a hedge trimmer are the most important part of its upkeep. If your blades become dull, the blade will tear through the grass instead of cutting it.- Clean the blades: The best way to keep your blades sharp is to wash them after each use, but doing so will extend the life of your blades.
- Change the blades: If your blades become dull, or youre using the trimmer on a rough surface, it’s time to replace them.
- Oil the blade: Before each use, oil the blade of your machine to prevent rust and corrosion. Afterward, clean the blade to remove any excess oil.
- Sharpen the blade: If the blades on your trimmer become dull, you should sharpen them. Most trimmers come with blade sharpeners, or you can purchase one separately.
- Change the oil: Its important to change the oil on your trimmer regularly. If you dont, the engine will start to overheat, which reduces the life of the trimmer.
- Check your air filter: Every 100 hours of use, you should inspect your air filter. If the air filter becomes clogged, it will affect the performance of your trimmer.
- Remove debris from the engine: If you come across debris or dirt after youve cleaned your trimmer, remove it.
