    mains electric hedge cutter going slow

    Wotan Thanks for reply, but blades fully lubricated. Fuse changed in case old one had "intermittent" fault. (I know grasping at straws) Also if blades were sticking, I think there would have been some motor overheating /and burning type smell but none were present. Would a faulty...

    mains electric hedge cutter going slow

    I have a Flymo HT 600 hedge cutter and whilst in full flow cutting my hedge yesterday, it slowed up to about half speed, making a bit of a "groaning" noise but no burning smell. The brushes seem to be adequate, about 8 mm long, and there is no sign of any burning. I have just used it...
