Key Features & Engineering Benefits
- 500 mm Laser-Cut Dual-Action Steel Blades: High-precision dual-reciprocating blades provide smooth, low-vibration cutting performance, cleanly shearing hedge shoots without tearing stems or leaves.

- 90° Rotating Rear Handle: Swiveling rear handle mechanism adjusts smoothly to accommodate both horizontal top leveling and vertical wall profiling with natural arm and wrist posture.
- Two-Hand Safety Trigger System: Dual interlock controls on the main rear grip and front auxiliary loop handle prevent accidental startup, requiring two-handed operation for activation.
- Dual Safety Brake: Fast-acting mechanical/electrical blade brake stops cutting teeth within a fraction of a second upon trigger release for enhanced operator safety.
- Transparent Hand Protection Guard: Durable clear deflector shields the front hand from flying clippings and snapping twigs while keeping the cutting line fully visible.

To maintain clean cutting efficiency and prolong blade life, clean plant sap residue from the teeth after each trimming session and lubricate the laser-cut blades with a light coating of machine oil.
