If the chip receiver is attached to the blades, it gathers
discarded leaves and makes clean-up afterward much
easier.
To cut a hedge side evenly, cut from the bottom to top.
When trimming to make a round shape (trimming box-
wood or rhododendron, etc.), trim from the root to the
top for a beautiful finish.
