Very informative. Thank you.

I am sure that some people even cut their fingers off accidentally. Treat it like a chainsaw and only operate it with both hands so they are less likely to be cut.

Thanks for the safety tip.

I cut my finger through and broke a bone by the hedge trimmer

At my work, we're asked to wear chaps when operating a hedge trimmer except for pole trimmers.

It's a shame the operator is not using the recommended safety equipment
