Thanks for your comment and I'm glad you love my channel 😁

[@keithgreen9009]

Thanks for the advice, I've just ordered this model so I can just stand on my garden instead of using steps . I also gave the makita lawnmower and strimmer which are great

[@FixitwithFowler]

It's a brilliant bit of kit, I've just ordered the makita strimmer and will be reviewing that shortly!

[@Michi04]

Thanks for the video. Very helpful for my purchase decision. Greetings from Germany Michael 😊👍🏻

[@FixitwithFowler]

I'm glad you found the video helpful! Thanks for your comment all the way from Germany!

[@peteaustin8056]

Thanks for the video - very useful and informative . I have a standard Makita 520mm Hedge Trimmer and it is great , but i have some tall hedges that i want to get to without resorting to using ladders.

[@FixitwithFowler]

That was my exact reason for investing in this Makita hedge trimmer. It is so much quicker, easier, and safer without needing steps. Thanks for your comment!

I was only looking at the hedge trimmer attachment for my petrol stihl pole pruner this morning. I've got the mini chainsaw attachment and that's absolutely brilliant. Had a sixty foot pine tree come down with a storm a few years ago and I used it more than the stihl petrol chainsaw. Great tools. 260 quid for the trimmer head though.

[@FixitwithFowler]

I can't believe how good this is, I was doubtful of it's capability but it's great!

[@markvincent5241]

@@FixitwithFowler takes out all the graft, definitely worthwhile in your 50s.

[@FixitwithFowler]

It was easily twice as fast to do my big hedge!

[@OutdoorPrepper2025]

Nice bit of kit, don't forget to oil it after each use as it helps a lot,as its easy to forget and people wonder why its not working properly and it gets sticky .

[@FixitwithFowler]

Oh yeah, never thought about. Thanks for the tip 👍

[@carloj-g6001]

how long does the battery last?

[@FixitwithFowler]

As I said in the video, I trimmed my hedge, which is 2.5m high and nearly 100 meters long, and only used 1 bar on the battery

[@herved.5723]

Bonjour, You confirm only 10mm not 28mm? Regards

[@FixitwithFowler]

Hi, In regards to what?

[@herved.5723]

@@FixitwithFowler I found on market place info that cut 28mm ; in video he have said 10mm... But I found solution on Makita docs : it is 18mm. Ty

[@FixitwithFowler]

Oh right, the instructions that come with the Makita hedge trimmer state 10mm cutting diameter, but I'm sure it could manage thicker bits. Thanks for your comments!

[@tonysutton6559]

I'm waiting for the Ryobi equivalent to be on a super discount and then I'll treat myself to one.

[@FixitwithFowler]

That would be ideal, especially if you already have ryobi tools and batteries

[@tonysutton6559]

@@FixitwithFowler Yes, I'm too far invested in Ryobi tools to change now. They might not be man enough for the pros but they have done some fairly hefty DIY duty.

[@FixitwithFowler]

I've never used them but I know a lot of people who rate them. As you say, once you have the batteries and other tools in the range, then it makes sense to stick with that brand

[@craigjones9131]

This has nothing to do with hedges but my question is,.How do you paint over plasters bonding or do you sand/scuff it up first...it just soaks the undercoat up even after 2 to 3 coats ??

[@FixitwithFowler]

Do you mean bonding plaster?

[@craigjones9131]

Yes mate..

[@FixitwithFowler]

Bonding plaster goes on as a base coat to bond between the bricks/block work and the final skim of multi finish plaster. So, in short, you either need to add a skim of multi finish plaster or some sort of filler like gyproc easifill. Hope that helps

[@craigjones9131]

Cheers buddy

[@FixitwithFowler]

No problem mate!
