sure it is securely located and if working high tie the ladder to the thicker inner branches
of the hedge.
• Ensure no people or animals are in the work area.
TOP CUTTING (See FIG. D)
Use a wide sweeping motion. A slight downward tilt of the cutting blades in the direction of
motion gives the best cutting results.
SIDE CUTTING(See FIG. E)
When trimming the sides of the hedge, begin at the bottom and cut upwards, tapering the
hedge.
inward at the top. This shape will expose more of the hedge, resulting in a more uniformed
growth.
