Battery-operated pruning shears are effortless to use, as the user does not need to exert the force required with a manual shear. They provide a clean cut with two curved blades that pass by each other, like regular scissors. One of the blades is sharp and cuts as it passes by the thicker blade.

It is suitable for more demanding pruning tasks, on thick and harder branches of trees and shrubs.

Cutting can be performed in more than one stage or with the gradual application of force. Instead of a single, complete cutting motion, you can apply pressure gradually, progressing progressively until the branch is completely cut. In this way, managing thicker or harder branches is done with less fatigue and greater precision, reducing the risk of straining the tool and your hand.

Maintaining pruning shears is important for preserving their performance and lifespan. The following instructions provide general advice. However, it is always important to follow the manufacturer's instructions in the shears' user manual.

• The blades need to be cleaned and disinfected after each use to prevent reduced cutting performance and the transmission of diseases.
• To avoid wear and rust, you can lubricate the shears according to the manufacturer's instructions.
• Before storage, you can disconnect the battery when you know you will not be using the shears for a short period.
• Charging the battery needs to be done according to the manufacturer's instructions.
