Hedge Trimmer

If your hedge trimmer starts but won’t run, it could be due to a number of reasons. Here are a few possible causes and solutions

The trimmer is not getting enough gas. Make sure the gas tank is full and that the fuel line is clear.
The spark plug is dirty or damaged. Remove the spark plug and clean it with a wire brush. If the spark plug is damaged, replace it.
The air filter is dirty. Remove the air filter and clean it with a dry cloth.
The carburetor is dirty or out of adjustment. Clean the carburetor or have it adjusted by a qualified technician.

The hedge trimmer is working but not cutting because the blades are dull. To sharpen the blades, remove the screws that hold the blades in place and use a file to sharpen the edges. Once the blades are sharp, replace the screws and test the trimmer on a piece of wood.
