Request a Collection via Robert Dyas Customer Services If you have much higher hedges to deal with, a longer extension is desirable. However, bear in mind that the longer you extend your trimmer pole, the more difficult it will be to control. Blade Length & Cutting Capacity

Ergonomically designed for ease of use, the lightweight and adjustable construction makes this pole is easy to manoeuvre and reduces strain on your arms and shoulders. Blade tip protector– Ideal for cutting along paths and walls, the blade is designed to prevent damage.

If you are interested in purchasing a long reach hedge trimmer, the overall length of the tool needs considering. This type of hedge trimmer will usually offer you a fixed minimum length of around two metres, which can then be extended slightly.

Chainsaws are more aggressive cutting machines and have limited reach. Unless you want to fetch a ladder and secure yourself to surfaces with harness equipment, a hedge trimmer will prove far more practical. Hedge Trimmers vs Pole Saws It doesn't matter whether you’re looking for a battery powered, mains electric or petrol long reach hedge trimmer; you’re bound to find something that’s right for you at The Green Reaper. We only supply models that run efficiently, designed to ensure they comply with current emission regulations, whilst ensuring vibrations are tempered to a slight buzz by fitting top-quality handles and grips. The Bosch PowerForAll Tool range is a range of tools you can buy knowing that batteries are compatible with all tools in the range providing they are of the same voltage. eg 18v fits 18v, 12v (10.8v) fits 12v (10.8v) etc. Please also note that 10.8v is compatible with 12v & vice versa as it is just a name change. Indego Lawnmowers also use the PowerForAll 18v battery but require a cover plate to be removed if changing.

These two tools have similar functions, but a pole saw offers little in the way of cutting accuracy. For example, a pole saw will rarely allow you to cut across the top of hedges, as with a hedge trimmer. Hedge Trimmers vs Hedge Shears Hedge trimmers are designed for precise cutting jobs, whereas hedge cutters are intended for more aggressive cutting jobs. Should I oil my hedge trimmer?

Powerful– With the 18 V Lithium-ion battery you can continually use this pruner without interruption. This depends on how confident you are handling a hedge trimmer. The longer the blade, the more difficult it can be to use an extended hedge trimmer for longer periods. Can a hedge trimmer cut through branches? Using a handheld cordless hedge trimmer is simple. Many of the makes and models we offer have easy circular handholds, so you know exactly where to place your grip. Because you will most likely be using these at hip, waist, or chest height, they are easier to balance. Using a long reach hedge trimer is fairly simple. First, you will need to determine at what height you need to cut. Once you have determined this, adjust the pole length of your trimmer. Next, you will need to set the cutting head angle. Many hedge trimmers have multiple levels of adjustment to allow you to cut at different angles. Hedge shears are a manual alternative to hedge trimmers. If you only have very minor trimming work that needs to be undertaken, hedge shears can be used. They are also ideal for finishing work and pruning tasks.Use it slowly and gently, as any sharp movements could either bring you off balance or take a chunk out of your hedge!

In short, cutting capacity defines the maximum diameter of branches you can expect to cut through with a hedge trimmer. Most hedge trimmers will be able to cut through branch diameters of around 14 millimetres. If you need to cut through tougher shrubs and branches, go for a model with a higher cutting capacity.
