Bosch hedge trimmer and pole saw - for spares or repair (Lower Earley RG6)

Bosch heavy duty electric hedge trimmer and pole saw

I have used this to trim some very tall hedges we inherited when we moved into our home but no longer need it now that we have reduced their height

It has been stored in our shed for over a year and when I tested it before listing on freegle all the components seemed OK separately but I could not get them to work together. The base unit powers up and spins the drive shaft when switched on with nothing attached, but when the trimmer or saw are attached I could not get it to drive them. Hence I am listing this for spares or repair.

This is a chunky unit driven by mains electric (so it has a power cord, not a battery)

Pros:
. powerful enough to cut tough hedges
. long enough to cut very tall hedges
. giving it away now as this is a good time of year to cut some hedges

Cons:
. heavy
. will give your shoulders a workout, especially if you use the extension pole

The oil reservoir for the pole saw looks empty which I suspect means it may be leaking a little. I can refill it for you before you take it away or you might prefer not to risk a leak into your vehicle.

Available for collection from our home in Lower Earley.
