Cordless Hedge Trimmer FAQ
How to use a cordless hedge trimmer
Whether you’ve chosen a small cordless hedge trimmer, or something with a bit more grunt for those larger and woodier hedges, Tool Kit Depot stock a range of high-quality reputable brands at fantastic value.
Remove the blade protector, hold onto the front hand grip, and push the trigger and safety with the other hand to start
Begin at the bottom, sweeping the trimmer steadily across the face of the hedge and keeping it away from your body
Save the top of the hedge for last, using a hedge trimmer with an extendable pole, or a ladder if it’s high up
When you’re done, turn off your trimmer and use a brush, cloth, or soapy water to get the sap off the blades.
Remember to go slow and check your lines regularly - you can always cut more off but you can’t put it back on!
Do cordless hedge trimmers need to be sharpened?
A sharp blade is essential for a quick job, and also keeps your trees and plants in good nick by using nice, clean cuts. Make sure to sharpen your hedge trimmer after about 50 hours of use, as thick branches and resins can blunt the blades.
What should I look for in a battery hedge trimmer?
Battery hedge trimmers have come a long way, and can be great for loads of different trimming jobs. Here’s some things to think about before you invest in one:
Weight: you’ll be moving them around a lot and need to hold them steady for a neat job. Make sure to get something that won’t tire your arms out too quickly
Battery life: if you’ve got lots of hedges, be sure to get a battery powered hedge trimmer that goes the distance
Hedge height: if you don’t want to be up and down a ladder all the time, think about investing in a cordless pole hedge trimmer with an articulating head to make quick work of those hard-to-reach places
Brand: choosing a well-known brand with a good reputation is always a good idea if you want high-quality tools that last—you can find those here at Tool Kit Depot!
