What about you! Today i'm going to show you a trick on how to cut hedges - with little to no waste. Let's go........
Quick "shout out" to Milwaukee Tools UK, who sponsor my Channel, these tools were gifted to me free of charge but they're not going to see this Video before you guys we're, so we're
going to put it all together. So let's go and have a look at the tools we're going to use today.
Just to show you some of the tools that we're going to be using today. So we have the Quick Lock System,
we have this new small trimmer from Milwaukee, we have their chainsaw.
I have done a Video on their chainsaw before, Link at the end of this Video. We have the blower,
we have a new set of hedge cutters. So, we're going to be trying those out.
So this bush here, we're just going to give this a really light tidy up with this tool.
This was cut a month or two ago, doesn't need too much off it
but customer's just asked us just to give it a wee quick trim.

So this bit of hedge here, sort of level across to here, and then over the years I wanted this to
go up, to sort of this gate but we want just now, just to take it sort of straight across this.
Just at the minute there, Danny's getting as much as he can from the ground,
and then it's always easier because the,
whenever you're on ladders the bit that's closest to you is always the hardest bit to get!
So there you go. Danny's doing the work as always. Now here's the trick I'm going to show you.
I'm going to show you very quickly, I'm going to say that a lot of people maybe don't have
access to . . . . here in Northern Ireland, we're really fortunate we can take the green waste to our
local recycling centre, but I know in the rest of the UK that isn't the case, or maybe even different
parts of Northern Ireland you can't access your local recycling center, so we can actually take
it away for free which is absolutely amazing. Put that aside, I'm going to show you a trick
that is going to get rid of most the waste, not all of it. You could if you really wanted to, you
could use it to get rid of all the waste, but the trick I'm going to show you, we're going to get rid
of most of it, and then we're going to, whatever is left, we're going to put into the customer's
brown bin. Nice and easy. Let's get on with that now ......
Today we're going to be using the Milwaukee mower.
It has a mulching plug on it, so we're going to be mulching after this. Now just a word of warning. If you're
going to be doing this you always want to be wearing the sight safety gear, all that kind of carry on,
because you want to watch your eyes, in case anything flies out. Also the mower, it's going to need to be
sharpened after you do something like this, if you do something like this, don't expect to be cutting
grass with it the next day or, or don't expect to be cutting the nicest grass with it the next day.
So quite hard on the mower, but we're going to have a go with it and see if we can mulch all these
clippings down to next to nothing, and see if we can get away with not taking any waste away, or
hopefully very very little waste in the brown bin. So we'll see how we go.
Always check the manufacturer's guidelines before trying this with your own lawnmower.
So you can see we've had a few passes over this here. It's pretty much broken down, so there's one
more process left after this, because there is some stuff here, now you could return it the lawn but
this might create a bit of thatch so what we're going to do is we're going to give it a quick
blow, and just disperse all that stuff into the beds where it's going to not do any harm the lawn.
So today has been a good test for the Milwaukee mower. Now that is, that is a battery lawn mower,
and it runs in the M18 batteries. I did a different Video on battery runtime so if you're curious
about battery run times for Milwaukee, especially Milwaukee hedge cutters, trimmers, strimmers, blowers,
all that sort of stuff - watch this Video next - go ahead watch that and I'll see you over there.
