Just acquired one..............noisy, powerful, a bit heavy.......... ............hedgecutter...........goes through woody growth nearly 30mm thick............. .......450 feet of hedge to do..........done about 150............. .........bl**dy hell, my arms ache! Had to stop, got the lactate build up........
Shorta*se and having to lift it to reach overgrown hedge, plus asthma = short of breath and pumped up arms.....now the old deltoids are beginning to ache after today's efforts...... ...........but its not really the agony of the cutting I dislike, but I hate the agony of having to clear up the cuttings......
