Hedge Trimmer / long reach Hedge Trimmer
When you choose a hedge trimmer, consider what sort of job you will use it for. Will you be trimming high, low or long hedges? Will you be shaping the hedge?
The double-sided hedge trimmer is designed for trimming hedges up to chest height. A double-sided trimmer could be equipped with an adjustable rear handle for increased flexibility and for better ergonomics when trimming the sides of hedges. For shaping hedges, the double-sided trimmer is the most suitable.
Single-sided trimmers are designed mainly for straight sections of hedge. With teeth on one side of the cutting bar, the blade can be longer without the machine becoming too heavy. A longer blade lets you clip larger areas in a single sweep.
Long reach hedge trimmers are used for cutting high and low hedges, and ground cover too. With a pole hedge trimmer you can cut high hedges without a ladder. Because you can angle the cutting bar you can work more quickly and it’s easier to reach when cutting low or high hedges. The engine acts as a counterweight to the cutting bar, so the machine remains well balanced while you work.
