How to choose Hedge Trimmers
Hedge trimmers are an essential tool for landscaping, and selecting the right model can be tricky. When shopping for hedge trimmers, you’ll want to consider the size of the handle, the length of the head, and the weight of the trimmer.- How does the handle feel? The handle should be comfortable, and it should be adjustable so that you can reach various heights.
- How heavy is the trimmer? Most trimmers weigh between 4 and 5 pounds.
- How long is the head? Most hedge trimmers come with heads that measure around 18 inches.
- What accessories come with the trimmer? Some trimmers come with additional attachments, like pruners or snippers.
- Does the trimmer have an adjustable head? Most trimmers come with an adjustable head, which allows you to adjust the height of the trimmer.
- Does the trimmer have an ergonomic grip? The handle should be comfortable, and it should be easy to hold. A trimmer with an ergonomic grip is more comfortable to use, and it’s also less likely to cause strain or fatigue.
How to maintain Hedge Trimmers
Many homeowners use hedge trimmers to keep hedges neat and trimmed. These string trimmers come in many different sizes, from trimmers used to trim small hedges to large models that can be used to trim entire properties.- Clean the blades: Over time, oil on the blades of the trimmer can build up, making it difficult for the blades to move freely. To test the tightness of the blades, hold the trimmer upside down and pull the trimmer’s trigger. If the blades move freely, they need oiling. If they’re stuck, you’ll need to remove the blades and wash them with a wire brush.
- Change the oil and air filter: Oil on the blades can build up over time, so it’s important to periodically change the oil and air filter. Most string trimmers have an oil reservoir on the top of the trimmer, which can be easily accessed by unscrewing the top cap. To replace the air filter, pull the trimmer’s trigger to unscrew it.
- Sharpen the blades: If your hedge trimmer’s blades become dull, it is likely to cause more problems rather than fix them. To sharpen blades, use a wire brush to scrub the blades and then sharpen them with a whetstone.
- Check the cord: Check the cord of your hedge trimmer before each use. Make sure there aren’t any loose or frayed wires. If there are, you’ll need to replace the cord.
