Need to mend your Qualcast hedge trimmer?

Check cable, hold so that it runs, and move the cable, as if you had moved the unit. But keep unit still, if it cuts out, damaged cable, the bad section would need to be cut out, and them reattached inside, If not cable, possibly a contact inside SD July 2012
