TRIMMING TECHNIQUES
Maintain proper balance at all times. Keep hand away from blades. Wear eye protection
when using the unit. Hold the clipper firmly and turn ON.
GRASS SHEAR
•
The shear works best with dry grass, but it can be used safely in wet grass due to the low
voltage design.
•
A long sweeping cutting motion will get the greatest amount of clipping per charge.
•
Feed blade into grass at a rate that allows it to keep up cutting speed. Feed slower if
blades slow down.
•
DO NOT force blade into the ground. It is designed for clipping grass, weeds, dry flowers
and new shrub growth. It is not designed for edging.
•
Watch out for foreign objects in the grass.
•
A fully charged Clip&Shear™ should have a cutting time of up to one hour. Cutting
time may be diminished significantly by a using a dirty or un-lubricated blade.
SHRUB CLIPPER
•
The shrub clipper works best with dry shrubbery and bushes, but it could be used safely
with wet growth due to the low voltage design.
•
A wide sweeping cutting motion away from the body is recommended, and will get the
greatest amount of clipping per charge.
•
A slight downward tilt of the blade, in the direction of motion gets the best result.
•
To cut thicker twigs, use a little extra pressure as you feed the blade through the growth.
•
This unit should NOT be used for large trees and hedges with limbs in excess of 5/16th of
an inch in diameter.
•
Watch out for foreign objects.
•
A fully charged Clip&Shear™ should have a cutting time in excess of one hour. Cutting
time may be diminished significantly by a using a dirty or unlubricated blade
