Description

The hedge trimmer has a 45 cm blade made of high-quality steel, which gives a precise, even cut. The maximum cutting thickness is 15 mm, which makes it suitable for small and medium-sized branches and for tidying and shaping shrubs. This is combined with a light, compact construction that makes the device pleasant to use even for longer periods.

The hedge trimmer’s dual-switch system increases safety by preventing accidental starting. In addition, the device’s ergonomic handle design, combined with its light weight, guarantees comfortable and effortless use even in prolonged garden work.
