How to Sharpen a Black and Decker Hedge Hog
Maintaining the sharpness of electric timmers can made landscape trimming easier with beautiful results.
Electric hedge trimmers make trimming hedges and bushes easier and quicker than using manual hand-powered trimmers. Electric trimmers, the most popular type in the U.S., cost less and require less maintenance than gasoline-powered models.

While they are not premium products, electric trimmers like the Black and Decker Hedge Hog trimmer can keep trimming reliably for years with proper maintenance, including sharpening the blade's teeth.

I cut through the cord by accident, can I buy a replacement wire?
If you are handy, you can do this. Most trimmers some with a very short cord to which you are expected to attach a extension cord. What exactly did you cut? If the short cord that may have come with it ... disassemble the body of the machine and reconnect a shorter (the one you cut) cord. If it was the extension, that is easy. New ends available ar your hardware store.
If there is a trick part,it is in reassembly. Pay attention to how it was configured when you took it apart.
