Box Hedge clipping.

Hello, If anyone can advise on my problem I would be obliged.
I am a big fan of Box Hedging and have quite lengthy hedges which have been cared for for many years.
I have always clipped with hand shears and the results have been perfect.
I am now in my seventies and clipping with hand shears has become quite difficult.
this year I purchased a set of good quality electric shears. (Bosch about 3 ft. Length)
The hedge is now suffering from what I believe is known as leaf crush and the hedge is looking quite unsightly.
does anyone know of any suggestions or tips to get over this problem as reverting to hand shears is a bit impracticable.
Regards, D Edwards.
