A beautiful lawn is the main decoration of a personal plot, park or square. In order for the grass to look beautiful, it must be cut regularly. Not everywhere this can be done with the help of a lawn mower: there are always "uncut" places. Most often they are located near fences, bushes, fences of beds and paths, near
tree trunks. All these areas have to be processed manually. This can be done with an ordinary garden tool, but cordless grass shears are more effective. They are a small device with two knives with long teeth. The lower knife usually remains stationary, and the upper cuts off the blades of grass that have fallen between the teeth due to the movement to the right and left.
Cordless grass shears usually have three or six batteries. Their recharging takes place through a special electric wire, which is connected at one end to the electric network, and at the other end to a special socket on the body of the scissors.
Power tool knives need periodic sharpening. In order to restore their operability, bolts are provided on the lower part of the housing, by unscrewing which, you can remove the cutting parts of the device and sharpen them. Mounting and dismounting is easy, just a screwdriver is needed. Before unscrewing the bolts, be sure to remove the batteries. This will protect you from possible injuries. Only after you finish installing the knives can you insert the batteries into place.
During operation, cordless grass shears must be held parallel to the ground at the height of the lawn. If you need to process a small area, you can pick up the device in your hands. When processing large areas of the lawn, a special handle with wheels can be attached to the body. This will allow you to cut the grass without bending over. Scissors can be controlled directly from the handle. To do this, you need to connect the wire from the switches to it and connect it to the corresponding socket on the scissors body.
There are two switches on the handle. The first turns the motor on and off, the second blocks the toggle switch on scissors (used for long-term operation). The height of the handle is adjusted using special clamps that lock it in position.
Please note that solid objects, such as twigs, can get into the grass shears during cutting. They can block the device or even cause it to malfunction. Therefore, before starting work, it is advisable to check the territory and remove all foreign objects.
There is a wide range of lawn care tools on the market. When choosing scissors for a lawn, pay attention to their weight (hold them in your hands - this is important!) And while working without recharging the batteries. Equally important is the reliability of the equipment, the availability of a warranty period and after-sales service. Bosch cordless grass shears have a good reputation. They are distinguished by reliability, thoughtful design and good cutting ability. Gardena cordless grass shears have a knife positioner whose edges are laser-cut, which improves the quality of the cut.
