action so that the stems are fed directly into the cut-

ter blade. Older growth will have thicker stems and

will be trimmed easiest by using a sawing move.

ment. Do not try to cut stems that are larger than

3/8" thick or those obviously too large to feed into

the cutter blade. Use a non-powered hand saw or

pruning saw to cut the larger stems.

hedge level. Decide how high you want the hedge,

Then stretch a piece of string along the hedge at

this height, Trim the hedge lust above this guide line

of string. Sea Figure 5. Trim the side of ahedge so

that It will be slightly narrower at the top as shown in
