Frequently Asked Questions

Are replacement blades available for hedge trimers?

The blade is a part of the motor assembly and is not able to be easily replaced by the customer; the blade should be sharpened instead. We do not advise the customer for any of our hedge trimmers to sharpen the blade themselves unless they are familiar with this task. In most cases, it is required to take the unit to a qualified technician for sharpening.

Unfortunately, this is not an option for our designated handheld trimmers.

  • Option A – Unit has anti-jamming function: If the branch is blocked in the blade, press the anti-jamming button on the control panel, the blade will reverse twice, and the branch should be released. You can clean the blades by removing any other dirt and debris using a paint brush and then applying a light machine oil. WD-40 or a similar product is recommended.

Pole hedge trimmers are regular hedge trimmers attached to a pole. They are used for cutting high hedges without using a ladder.

How should I hold a pole hedge trimmer?

For best balance when using a pole hedge trimmer, do not overreach. Always keep proper footing and balance. Practicing proper footing and balance ensures that you will have proper control of the tool in unexpected situations. Always hold the unit firmly with both hands; keep your left hand on the pole shaft and your right hand on the rear handle, so your body is to the left of the blade line. Never use a left-handed (cross-handed) grip, or any stance that places your body or arm across the blade line. Ensure that you maintain a proper grip on the unit whenever the motor is running. For further details, refer to your owner’s manual.
