As the name suggests, electric pole hedge trimmers are trimming machines powered by electricity. They are usually characterized by a cable cord which one can connect to a power source to get the machine running. This type of trimmer is very lightweight. A carrying belt is supplied so that you won’t have issues moving this cordless battery trimmer from one place to another. It is powered by an 18V lithium-ion battery (not included), and that is why we guarantee its optimum performance. Its lightweight is a plus, and that is why you can manoeuvre it without much hassle.If you own an expansive garden, you may find that an electric hedge trimmer is not the best choice. This is because the cord often limits the reach of the machine since the wire always has to be plugged into a power source during use.

It comes in two pieces. The front section houses the motor and blade assembly, and the rear contains the handles, battery, and trigger unit. The 430 mm blade of a reasonable length, and the individual teeth are squared off at the ends with a 16 mm tooth clearance. This means you can cut through branches up to that size. I wouldn’t call this a heavy power tool because it weighs less than 4 kg, but it’s definitely unwieldy. When it’s retracted to its minimum length it’s fine to use though. I felt like I could trim and shape bushes and trees for hours! Teeth Spacing: The teeth spacing of your tool is also essential. The teeth spacing always determine how well the machine cuts stems and branches. While wider teeth are so powerful, they can slice through bigger branches; they often require a larger motor.

The Recommended team does not own a hedge big or bad enough to test the petrol-powered monster trimmers at the top of the market. For that we have taken professional gardener Ljudmil’s advice. The rest were tested on a mix of conifer, deciduous and thorny hedges found in most gardens. Because hedge-trimming is a strenuous job, we were looking for a clean, easy cut, good balance and light weight. You can adjust its articulating cutting head up to 135 degrees so that you can easily have absolute control from the ground and be more versatile. The good news here is that there are four positions available for head adjustment.Hedge cutters are a lifesaver. When it comes to trimming hedges in a garden, these tools will not only save your hands from ache; they will also save you precious time. Every garden owner needs this tool to keep their garden neat and attractive. If you are looking for an cordless hedge cutter for effective trimming, you should try the Gtech HT30. It is fortified with 315mm long dual blades so that you can trim hedges effectively. The spacing between each blade teeth is 1.5cm, and you can adjust the cutting head by 135 degrees.

Lots of Hedges: If your yard or garden has a lot of hedges, then you should find a brush cutter that has a long cutting blade. A blade that is at least 70cm or more can cut a significant number of hedges in one single sweep. So remember PowerForAll signifies complete battery compatibility throughout the range. There is however, one caveat to this, some of the very first older chargers will not charge the very latest batteries & a battery charger upgrade will be required if you have a first generation charger. All batteries fit all tools however. The 1bhp two-stroke petrol engine starts with a short yank on the cord and, although it’s heavy and very loud, the anti-vibration system makes the HS 82 R reasonably comfortable to work with, although perhaps not for the 90 minutes a tank of fuel will last and not without gloves, ear protectors and goggles. When switching between vertical and horizontal trimming, you can rotate the handle by 90 degrees either way, but that’s about the only concession to comfort. When you take the pole trimmer apart, the motor and blade section weigh more than the handle section (with the battery included). This tells you a lot about the balance of the machine. When you factor in a fully extended pole, most of the weight is really far forward. If these hedges are far from an electrical power source, you might want to consider getting a petrol-powered trimmer. A cordless model too will work, especially if you have a spare battery to support the one that came with the trimmer.Besides, it comes with vital attachments so that you can get value for your money. There is the strimmer attachment, which has strimmer heads including a grass trimmer head with 4 Lines, 40-tooth brush cutter blade, and 3-tooth brush cutter blade. Other attachments include long reach hedge trimmer attachment, long-reach chainsaw attachment, and a 1-metre extension pole The Gtech HT30 has the capacity to cut stems as deep as 15mm, and the branch cutter head is interchangeable. It is powered by a 2000mAh lithium-ion battery with a guaranteed runtime of 45 minutes. Within four hours, the battery can charge to optimum capacity for effective trimming. I have hurt myself in the past when my arm got tired and I let the trimmer fall on my leg,” he says. “It was turned off, but I was hurt badly enough to go to hospital. A trimmer’s teeth are basically knives, so always use a trimmer that feels comfortable for you.” Delivered in one of Bosch’s familiar green boxes, I was immediately surprised at how small and light it felt, especially compared to some of the huge ones I’d also tested out. This continued with the overall feel of this pole trimmer. It’s what you’d expect from a Bosch tool. It feels solid and the plastic casing doesn’t have any movement unlike some trimmers I’ve tested out.
