Stihl hedge trimmers are designed to make your bushes and scrubs look cleaner and more presentable. This outdoor power equipment can easily give your bushes clean lines and defined edges that are harder to achieve with garden shears.
Hedge trimmers come in two versions: “corded and cordless”.
What’s The Difference Between Corded And Cordless Hedge Trimmer?
Making your scrubs and bushes cleaner and more presentable is not a simple task to accomplish using garden shears. Achieving clean lines and defined edges is much harder with shears. This is why STIHL offers an easy solution: hedge trimmers.
If you’re considering purchasing a hedge trimmer, you’re most likely wondering whether the corded version is better than the cordless or vice versa. While the answer depends on your needs, we listed the difference between the two choices to help you decide.
Corded Hedge Trimmers
Corded trimmers pack a lot more power than their cordless counterpart. Landscapers typically prefer this type of hedge trimmer for heavy-duty work. With a corded hedge trimmer, you won’t have to stop every hour to charge your battery. This type of trimmer also gives off fewer emissions.
However, the corded trimmer must stay plugged into a power source when in use. This means users need power outlets in areas you want to cover if your trimmer’s cord isn’t long enough. Landscapers often carry heavy-duty extension cords on hand.
Some have been known to accidentally cut the extension cords attached to their hedge trimmers so long cords aren’t for everyone. Cutting a cord would render your trimmer unusable. Cords can also take up a lot of space and become heavy after spending a long day moving them around.
Cordless Hedge Trimmers
Cordless hedge trimmers run on battery. This gives users the freedom of movement that corded trimmers can’t offer. When using cordless trimmers, it’s essential to make sure that you charge your battery well before use.
Battery-powered hedge trimmers are very environmentally friendly. These types of trimmers do not give off emissions or noxious fumes during operation.
Cordless hedge trimmers are easier to manoeuvre and even easier to maintain than corded versions. This makes it perfect for homeowners or users with limited or no technical knowledge about trimmers.
Battery-powered hedge trimmers have a limited power supply, which means it’s not designed for trimming rows and rows of hedges. This makes it more suitable for smaller jobs.
STIHL, a German manufacturer of chainsaws and trimmers, offers a wide variety of hedge trimmers. Each piece of equipment features an outstanding power-to-weight ratio and precision-ground cutting blades.
STIHL hedge trimmers also offer superior manoeuvrability without sacrificing cutting power. STIHL’s anti-vibration technology helps keep the user’s hands steady during jobs.
The German company also offers extended reach hedge trimmers that feature fixed and 135-degree adjustable-angle blade options. These blades are ideal for extra tall and wide shrubs. STIHL offers electric and battery-powered trimmers. They also offer hedge trimmers designed for the use of homeowners and professionals.
