The team at Wagoner Power Equipment wants homeowners in and around Englewood, OH, to get the most out of their lawn equipment and tools. From large items like ride-on lawn mowers to smaller equipment like hedge trimmers, regular preventative maintenance can ensure that your tools will last you for years to come.

Here are a few steps you can take to ensure that you’re properly caring for your hedge trimmers:

• Routine Cleaning: On a monthly basis, it’s a good idea to clean out the main components, such as the fuel tank, the carburetor, and the fan wheel. Doing so can prevent any buildup, which can wreak havoc on your machine.

• Keep The Blades Sharp: Dull blades are one of the most common causes of jammed hedge trimmers. Sharpen your blades regularly to prevent dullness and to keep your machine working efficiently.
• Do A Regular Visual Check: About every month or so, do a visual sweep to ensure that the fuel filter and the fuel pipe look okay. If necessary, replace these items. You should also check the wear on the clutch and its components, and take a look at the muffler’s spark arrest screen. It’s a good idea to change the spark plug regularly.
