5.2.1 Optional Vineyard Wire Anti-Cutting Function
The shear is equipped with an optional function (which is always disabled on delivery) to avoid accidental cutting of the
vineyard metal wire.
Definition of vineyard metal wire: The term indicates the wire or wires supporting the vegetation and / or shoots of:
•
vineyards with trellis system
•
vineyards with free cordon system
•
vineyards with pergola system / GDC
•
etc.
or of all climbing and non-climbing plants, with single and/all multi-row support or driving wire/s.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The optional function is always disabled in its tool supply configuration.
DANGER
The optional metal wire anti-cut function is NOT a safety function aimed at protecting the person, but it is
aimed solely and exclusively, where possible, to limit any damage to the wire or wires supporting the vege-
tation and / or shoots, etc.
Activation / deactivation of the function:
To activate this optional metal wire anti-cut function carry out the following operations:
•
The shear must be turned off.

a) Switch off the shear.
b) Press and hold down the power button for at least 10 sec. until you hear the third “beep” (acoustic signal).

!
WARNING
The optional metal wire anti-cut function must always be deactivated before storing the tool, or in all cases
where it is not used.
5.2.2 Function description:
Once the optional function has been activated, in order to make it operate, the operator must hold the support wire of the
vegetation and / or branches with his free hand at a
MINIMUM
distance 15 cm from the cutting point on the branch, i.e.
from the shear blades.
DANGER
It is mandatory to always keep at least a distance of 15 cm between the hand holding the metal wire and the
branch or shoot to be cut, in order to avoid a risk of injury to the operator’s limbs.
The contact between the free hand and the metal wire must be preferably through the use of conductive metal gloves.
In these conditions, if the blade accidentally touches the metal wire, the cut is interrupted and the blade returns to the
open position, thus avoiding accidental damage to the wire and consequent restoration costs.
Any other use of this optional function other than the above mentioned is not permitted by the Manufacturer and is prohib-
ited. Moreover, it constitutes an improper use of the tool.
The Manufacturer disclaims any liability due to damage to property or people caused by an improper, unauthorized use of
the tool and / or not in accordance with the instructions supplied with the tool.
DANGER
Depending on the operations to be carried out, an improper use of the tool entails considerable risks and are
prohibited.
DANGER
The tool supplied must be used exclusively by qualified and trained operators who have read and understood
this manual and only and exclusively in compliance with the recommendations contained therein.
