Years back, I used to use an Echo hedge trimmer with an angle adjustable head to clear long grass, weeds and light brush. It worked fairly well at cutting swathes in ditches and overgrown fields and what not.
I'm looking to do something similar again around the house. I want something to clear in between the trees where raspberry canes, vines, and just general junk are overgrowing. Anything big I'll take down with a trimmer blade or chainsaw but once I get everything cleaned up, I want to be able to maintain it.
Stihl sells a 135 degree hedge trimmer attachment for the Kombi system but they also sell what they call a Powerscythe. I thought that sounded perfect for what I want, but looking at it, it seems it meant more for precise trimming of awkward areas. Anyone use one of these that can comment?
the bonus of the hedge trimmer is that I could actually use a hedge trimmer too.
Just looking for advice on which way to go. Thanks
