    Excellent, simplicity and efficiency in one easy chunk of advice.

    it is good to see that it isn't necessry to take it apart to sharpen the blades!!!!!!!

    I prefer to take the two blades apart, clamp them down to a work bench and sharpen them with a fresh flap disc on a angle grinder (no, it will not overheat, if your disc is not worn down and you don't take away more material than neccessary). After sharpening all of them on both sides, I use a fine whetstone on the flat side to take away the wire edge and in the same run take of dirt and debris. It might seem a bit daunting to take it all apart with all the screws and moving parts, but just take your time.

      I wondered about taking it apart; I would prefer to avoid that if possible.

    You Get a better even flat surface contact with blades with a file but takes longer and takes to much metal of with power tools.dremal grinder with flap wheel etc.

    I remove the blades on my Stihl HS56 and it's a much easier job. I do it the way you do if I'm on the job and need a touch up.

      That is what I was thinking. This looks like the down and dirty touch up job. Not really professional.

    Faster and easier to use a dremel.

    I found the best way to sharpen my hedge trimmers and get everything trim looking very good is to call a gardener

    How did the sharpening turn out on the job? I saw a large improvement after you went through and cleaned up the echo.

      It made a lot of difference, definitely worth the time.

    So you only sharpen one side of the tooth looks like other side cuts also

    • @HandyGuy2016
      @HandyGuy2016  Год назад +1

      For demonstration sake I only sharpened one side but you want to sharpen all the cutting edges.

  • @CodyJamez707
    @CodyJamez707 5 лет назад +5

    Seems like you are filing upside down but if it works I trust you.

    WD-40 is NOT a lubricant.

    • @lg_believe333
      @lg_believe333 6 месяцев назад

      So what would you suggest using then to lubricate the hedge trimming blades? WD40 is good for cleaning the blades and removing excess bur left behind from filing.

  • @THEWRITESTUFF61
    @THEWRITESTUFF61 2 года назад

    Why didn't you sharpen both edges of the cutting tooth? Also, never use WD-40 on hedge trimmers unless you want too kill branch ends.

    Looks like it would make a pretty nifty torture device if they had them in the middle ages! 😬

  • @andrewbratos6907

      Prevents damage to the tip from getting it too close to the ground.

    6 video I watch where they sharpen the tremors but don't go outside and show you how great they cut the bushes

  • @westslavs2336
    @westslavs2336 5 лет назад +7

    Hey mate, you've got sharpening from wrong position. It should be vice versa - not filling from the side you are doing. Absolutelly unprovessional.
