Trim the top of your high hedge quickly, easily and in complete safety with both feet on the ground using this superb heavy duty telescopic trimmer from Eckman. 

The rotating head provides multi-directional trimming with the minimum of effort, stooping or bending, and, in the majority of cases, allows for trimming without having to use a stepladder.

FAQs

Q: Can I download instructions for this product?
A: Yes, you can download a PDF copy of the instructions for this product by clicking here

Q: Is there a customer service phone number I can call for assistance?
A:
 The Eckman Customer Service number is 0871 590 5911

Q: I am squeezing the trigger switch but nothing seems to be happening, what is wrong?
A:
There are two possible reasons why it doesn't seem to work:
1. There are two safety buttons/swicthes on this item. One in the main handle and one in the auxillary handle. Both of these have to be held in for the item to work. If one is released then the power will cut out.
2. The trigger switch on the main handle needs to be squeezed at the BOTTOM. If you squeeze at the top, it will not work.

A hedge trimmer that's a cut above the rest.
Took a short while to find the optimum way to use the shoulder strap to bear the wait. best way being found the vertical rotation of the shaft and the muliti direction head made hedge trimming a dawdle.

Item was easy to assemble but difficult to use as it is heavy. We are both over 65 so are waiting until our son visits to use the trimmer on our hedges.
This is a problem with buying goods this way as you cannot test them first.

the telescopic hedge trimmer is wonderful gadget it has saved my husband a great deal of time and effort,as he had a triple by-pass a few years ago and it went wrong and he gets very breathless doing things now.
