3. VERTICAL TRIMMING (Side of Hedge)
Move the Garden Groom in a vertical sweeping action, ensuring the flat underside of the machine
is level with the surface of the hedge. Tip: For a tighter professional finish, bury the head of the
machine into the hedge, to the desired depth, working the machine upwards. See fig.2 (below).
To trim long stalks growing parallel with the surface of the hedge, move the head down in the
opposite direction to the growth (fig 3).
Please note: The capture rate of material is reduced using this angle of cut.

Note: Either the main collection bag or the volume bag
must be attached for the Garden Groom to operate.
4. TRIMMING EXTRA LONG GROWTH
The Garden Groom has been designed to trim
hedge growth
of 6” in length or less. However it
will trim exceptional
ly long
growth, but this
operation will i
nevitably
result in a lower rate
of capture (on vertical cuts only), due to the
sheer dynamics and volume of material to be
managed.
To trim exceptionally long growth (within
the recommended cutting diameters),
we advise the following techniques:
Trim the growth in several stages
(see fig.1 below) layering down,
until you arrive at the desired level.

Level
In some circumstances you may wish to adopt a vertical technique (see fig.2 below),
bringing the Garden Groom down onto the growth in a vertical action.
