How to use?
In order to avoid mechanical injury, you need to make sure that the scissors are securely fixed in your hands. Then you need to find out how much the device can work, based on the percentage of the battery charge.
Before starting work, it is worth inspecting the area that is planned to be processed to make sure that there are no foreign objects there. When mowing the lawn, they can get caught between the blades and damage the appliance.
After work, you need to clean the blades from adhering plant residues, wipe the tool dry and, if necessary, put it on recharge.

Terms of use
An operating instruction is included with each model of gardening tools. However, there are many important nuances when using them that are not described in the instructions.
Gardeners who have had time to test the device in practice speak about them.
- Knives need periodic sharpening. For this purpose, only the laser method is suitable.
- It is better to prefer the option with a lithium-ion battery, which can be used even at low temperatures.
- When buying a tool with a removable battery, you should immediately purchase a replacement battery. Thus, it will be possible to ensure uninterrupted operation of the device as it discharges by changing the battery.
- Some models have swivel blades (90 degrees). This helps when working with lawns in hard-to-reach places.
- The more capacious the battery, the longer the operating time of the device. But to recharge such a battery, you will have to wait a little longer than usual.
- Only use the factory charger to charge the battery. Charges with higher voltages, as well as lower voltages, will sooner or later disable the instrument.
Popular manufacturers
Garden equipment of this type is produced by different brands. The recommendations of experts incline consumers towards popular manufacturers, whose high-quality products have been practically tested for a long time. The leaders in the list of the most demanded models of garden shears are grass trimming tools and brush cutters from Bosch and TM Gardena. But Greenworks and some other brands confidently follow them "in step" in this rating.
- Greenworks is revered for its lightness (700g) and a comfortable long handle. Two attachments and a capacious battery designed for 30 minutes of active operation of the device. The Chinese assembly is reliable and affordable.
- Stihl battery-powered scissors are comfortable, with minimized noise and a powerful lithium-ion battery. The charger is included in the kit to choose from - standard or quick charger.
- The Gardena ComfortCut cordless grass scissors are virtually as good as the Bosch models. Equipped with two attachments for cutting grass and shrub branches. Work uninterruptedly for an hour and a half.
- The Ryobi cordless shears feature low noise levels. Storage safety is ensured by the presence of a lock button against accidental activation. The tool is designed to be operated with one hand. Reversible knife and two attachments consisting of 100 mm wide scissors and 200 mm long brush cutter.
- The TM Hitachi tool is equipped with one head and can be used for mowing the lawn and pruning bushes. Up to 40 minutes of work without interruption is enough to process about 25 sq. m of lawn. The powerful pruning shears can easily handle branches up to 8 mm in circumference.
- The professional cordless lawn and bush trimmer from Makita features a larger cutting width (160 mm). The powerful motor is another plus for the Makita garden shears.
- The Lux Tools battery-powered shrub and lawn care scissors have a long handle but weigh 2 kg. This is their minus and plus. The length of the handle provides access to hard-to-reach places, and the weight is difficult to hold for a long time. But the operating time of up to half an hour allows you to take a break for rest and recharging the battery.
All of these models are of high quality, made of modern materials using the latest technologies. These are ergonomic tools for gardening with a high level of safety control.
