Long cutter bar? or long reach (ie on a pole)? Either way go to a
decent machinery dealer and get hold of a Stihl catalogue. Ask if they
have any on demo so you can get a feel of what they're going to be
like to use. Some of these things are quite hard work.

I have an electric "Viking" long reach hedge cutter with an
adjustable angle cutter head.

There is a lot of information on petrol driven models at:-

www.abbeygardensales.co.uk

Search the site for Pole saws/Trimmers - Petrol.

Finally, be sure to lash out the extra money to get a cutter head
whose angle is fully adjustable.

As far as hard work is concerned, my Viking is a bit heavy to use
but I find that I can cut a 9ft Leylandii hedge (top and sides)
without using a step ladder. This makes the effort worth while.
Incidentally, I am over 70 and was able to use my Viking about four
months after a quad bypass operation so it cannot be all that hard.

Any chance of you coming to do mine?

Thanks for the info though - looks useful.
