I have super clean and other products. I find the white lube just sits on the blades and it’s too expensive

Thank you

Thank you!!

Hey, it’s actually a gas Stihl blower. The low end pro grade unit. Ive used them for years and I just don’t think the battery blowers are up to par yet. I would rather spend 250$ on a gas blower and have more money for battery trimmers, saws, batteries etc.

I only use that for fine work. This hedges was thicker cutting. The battery tools aren’t quite powerful enough to be honest

I moved here from Vancouver,BC (temperate rainforest). I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE BETTER

I’ve since bought a dremel. It’s quick and more accurate than a grinder but the stones wear unevenly and they can’t make really good edge. Nothing better than a flat file IMO. These blades were rusted and seized when I got them. They were sharp for 2 months. Thanks for stopping by

I’m from Canada. They say I’m slow ehhh. 😂 loving it down under. Battery update: that bli 500 is awesome. Trimmed all day yesterday (lighter job than this) and used 1 bar. I heard the same about those lithium batts too. Thank you

@@adelaidehillshedges oh man my bad! 😂 wow that's epic to go all day on one battery! My Stihl AP300S last half a day, which is fine for me looking forward to your next video, cheers

Patented formula!!! Thanks for watching.

My smaller one has that- it’s great. I didn’t get one with the purchase

Thank you. These ladders are the best. I can’t trim without a good tripod ladder.

Thank you! Cheers!

This is the telescoping trimmer so probably not suitable for low work. It’s quite heavy too but for ladder work and tall stuff it’s king. I just bought the new model too handle saw. It’s seriously the best

I ordered this ladder from Bridge Aluminum in Murray Bridge, SA. It is an orchard ladder with rubber feet instead of the pointed feet. Its a bit on the heavy side to be honest but its so sold. Worth every penny.

That tarp is employee of the months, 2 months running. It is an heirloom.

Thank you.

Nothing toxic about hedge trimming. Get out there and do it. Good fitness and vitamin d and fresh air if you’re using electric. This one was easy, no ladder.

@@adelaidehillshedges not much vitamin d in the uk mate 😀😀

@@davegill7614 I moved to Aus from Vancouver. Rain 7 months of the year. No fun. Take care man

Thanks. If this horse could trim instead of race I’d be rich! New video coming this week

The horse is the star here.

Thanks Liam. I saw that dremel at bunnings. I need to sharpen my bigger trimmer so it might be time to try it.

Hey, thank you. I use multi lube or wd40 while cutting and then blade cleaner before I put it back in the sheath. WD40 is probably the best imo. I’ve tried all the lithium grease and pricier stuff but it’s not worth the $$.

@@adelaidehillshedges Thanks for taking the time to reply. Yup, WD40 is the bees knees.

Got to love that Husqvarna battery equipment? Don't know what they've done but there's some proper voodoo in those packs !!?? There's nothing else on the market that comes close to them, not even the EGO stuff or Milwaukee gear. So light and small and yet powerful and long running. Fantastic job too, I wish I had your eye and skill. Looks a million dollars, and all done in some pretty hot Adelaide weather !? Good stuff

Hi Colin. What's the weight difference like on these electric Husqy's compared to petrol? I used to struggle big time with hedges of that size keeping a Stihl telescopic aloft for long periods to get a levelled top.

Overall the machine is lighter. However, I have noticed that the length of the articulating head is longer than what I'm used to with stihl and that the head weights about as much as the motor so the balance is different. The telescopic units are not for me. You can buy an extension piece for the husky or stihl units. The stihl one is longer and made of carbon fiber. But over all I think the husky units are better made now. I still primarily use a gas unit at work for the power. You'd be best going into a husky shop and swinging one around with a battery TBH.@@dwilliams6346

@@adelaidehillshedges Thank you for that Colin. All the best mate

Thank you Liam! I got your message via the website. Ill respond to that there. Regarding mechanical sharpening, I prefer to use an angle grinder. I will be doing a video about that 100%. I do find its useful to try it with the file as it doesn't remove as much metal. I might do a comparison video about both methods.

No problem. Never a wasted moment in the shed.
