Default Can I trim a beech hedge with a petrol hedge cutter?

There are no problems at all in using a petrol/electric hedgecutter.
Especially if its a long hedge

hi guys,

ou new garden has a beech hedge and I wondered whether I could cut it

with
a
hedge cutter or do I need to prune it by hand using shears? are there

any
benefits/disadvantes cutter vs. shears?

I don't want to try the cutter if it will damage the hedge.......

any ideas anyone.

many thanx,
smileygonzo1961

IMHO its better to use secateurs on a beech hedge but plenty of people

do
use shears or hedge trimmers
