Does it rotate so that you can cut sideways- shape the top of a round hedge?

Yes, it pivots 90 degrees ,but you can turn it sideways using the extension adjustment. Loosen, turn sideways, lock.

Yes. I used parts to make the shape that I wanted. The top is in sections probably depending on width. Very easy to work with.

While it may cut weeds and brush and a variety of other things it's really a hedge trimmer and designed just for hedges. I can't see any practical reason to need the various features like the extension or angle for anything other than a tall hedge. It is perfect because I can keep a 10'+ high hedge trimmed without a ladder.

I don't think so. If you put an end mill in it, I suppose it would make a square-bottomed hole; but it has neither the bearings nor the torque to do any kind of side cutting.

Yes. the clip rotates and has click stops to hold it in the rotated position you prefer.

Yea you can rotate it. You just need to loosen the stud screw thinger and then move it and retighten it.

Yes, this cuts in both directions and is well worth the money for this model. I would definitely recommend it. Cuts clean and fast, is lightweight and not very loud. I did the whole front of my house which were large hedges about 6" overgrown in about an hour. I was trying to push these to see what they would and wouldn't do and only the thickest branches slowed them down but they could still cut them with persuasion. Hope this helps good luck.

I can't answer because I use curved pieces only slightly; but why would you want something that self-reverses to be in a circle? Just curious. :-)

Unfortunately, no. The pole is not round, with threads. Rather it is more of a rectangle with curved edges and hollow. Very strong for cutting branches, not so great for rigging a squeegee on the end of it.

Yes, the clip rotates 360 degrees with multiple stops so it can be adjusted to any angle.

yes, it rotates without having to loosen the fitting. I hold the fitting when I turn it just to make sure it does not loosen by accident.

If you mean rotate clockwise or counter clockwise, no. But it does swing from side to side with a great range of motion.

Yes, no, and it depends. The fence has an adjustment that will allow you to place your work at an angle to the blade. If you are standing in the operating position, the fence is normally perpendicular to the blade. By loosening the pivot adjustment bolt and the fence hold down bolt, you will be able to pivot the fence clockwise up to 15 degrees from "0" degrees ( "0" degrees is perpendicular to blade) and counterclockwise up to 45 degrees. If you are cutting basic bars, tubes, angle material, etc., typically you will be able to achieve the left and right 45 degree cuts by flipping your material. If you have a more complex shape, you will want to make sure you plan your cuts carefully. Yes, no, and it depends.

The hedge trimmer will pivot to cut parallel to the ground when the pole is extended above your head (as in trimming the top of a row of hedges). If you want to hold the pole at or below your waist to cut parallel to the ground, the answer is no.

#1 it has a straight edge, I did cut a 15-feet diameter curves w/it @1st step, and need another garden tool to enforce/deeper the cut @2nd step. for a small circle, I do not think it will do. #2 my opinion is: it is not build for cutting ivy, use a sharp shear may save more your time/effort.

I have this exact mower and it does turn when you pull it. You just need to flip the handle over to the other side.

I have never known it to rotate. The vibration is what creates the engraving. It takes a little getting used to, but if you can ground an elbow on a surface and place the item to be engraved on a towel (or something to help absorb the vibration) you can achieve really great precision. It is a bit noisy, but I love the product!
