Always start with the sides of the hedge. Guide the trimmer along
an arch route up and down and keep cutting. You should be using
both blade sides.
When cutting, hold the hedge trimmer at the angle of about 15°
and guide it horizontally across the hedge. When cutting the
top part, guide the trimmer in a sickle like movement toward the
hedge edges. Cut branches will then fall on the ground.
- Do not cut hedges out of the main trimming and pruning
season.
- If the branches are bigger than 22mm, they must be removed
by pruning shears.
- If heavy pruning is required, you should work in stages.
