Keep this in mind when caring for your hedge trimmer

Hedge trimmers are known to be sharp and can not only cut into branches, but also into fingers and hands. Therefore, it is imperative that you wear gloves when working to protect yourself from injury. Furthermore, be sure to check before your Hedge trimmer Maintain, cut off any energy supply so that it cannot start under any circumstances. To do this, remove the battery if it is a battery-operated hedge trimmer or the spark plugs on a gasoline-powered hedge trimmer. Hedge trimmers with cables must be disconnected from the power supply.

Clean the hedge trimmer

Plant debris can become wedged in the hedge trimmer's knives and soil and stones can become stuck. The moisture from the plant sap also collects on the metal. Therefore, a hedge trimmer should be cleaned briefly after each cleaning. To do this, rub off coarse dirt with a metal brush and wet the hedge trimmer with a resin-dissolving spray. The cutting blades can be rubbed off with a dry cloth and a little oil or care spray.

Oil the hedge trimmer

Oil protects the hedge trimmer from moisture and dirt, loosens dirt particles and makes the hedge trimmer easy to use. Therefore, the hedge trimmer should be sprayed or rubbed with oil after each use. You will find out how to do this here.
