GRASS SHEAR
o 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_
o 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 Mto the ground.
It is designed for clipping grass,
weeds, dry flowers and new shrub
growth, tt is not designed for edging.
