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.

The advantage that brushless motors have over brushed ones is that they have no friction since there are no carbon brushes. Without carbon brushes, the motors are more efficient and have a longer lifespan as there is no wear and tear (the carbon brushes in brushed motors wear out with use).

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

• The blades need to be cleaned and disinfected after each use, so that cutting performance is not reduced and to prevent 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 of time.
• The battery should be charged according to the manufacturer's instructions.
