Cutting Techniques
• Cut thick branches beforehand using
a branch clippers.
• The double-sided cutter bar enables
cutting in both directions or, with a
swinging action, from one side to the
other.
• In case of vertical cutting, move the
hedge trimmer uniformly forward or up
and down in an arc movement.
• In case of horizontal cutting, move
the hedge trimmer in a sickle-shaped
movement to the edge of the hedge,
so that cut branches fall to the ground.
• In order to achieve long straight lines,
the placing of tensioned guiding cords
is recommended.
Cutting Shaped Hedges:
It is recommended that hedges be
cut in a trapezoidal shape, in order
to prevent stripping off of the lower
branches. This corresponds to the
natural plant growth and allows the
hedge to thrive optimally. During cut-
ting, only the new annual growths are
reduced and thus a dense branching
and a good screen will develop.
• Cut the sides of a hedge first. To do
this, move the hedge trimmer in the
direction of growth from bottom to top.
If you cut down from the top, the thin-
ner branches will move out, which may
result in some areas having sparse
growth or holes.
• Cut the top edge, according to taste,
in a flat shape, roof shape or rounded
shape
• Trim young plants to the required
shape. The main growth should re-
main undamaged until the hedge has
reached the planned height. All other
shoots are lopped off to half size.
Care of Free-Growing Hedges:
Free-growing hedges are not shaped
when cut, although they must be regularly
maintained so the hedge does not become
too high.
