Power shears resemble large, high-tech scissors. Instead of a human hand exerting force on a scissor to cut an item, power shears use electrical power to apply a lot more force to the object. They can be used to cut materials such as steel, shrubbery and concrete. Manufacturers include Pacific International, Milwaukee, Malco and Fiskars.
Maintenance
Keep the equipment clean. Do not sharpen the blades as sharpening may damage this cutting tool. The tool must be greased every 100 hours of operation. Also, if they are being used to cut shrubbery, care must be taken not to let the shears touch the wires that are often used to keep shrubbery in place. The shears use a mixture of gas and oil, with the oil being the lubricator. Refueling should take place on concrete so as not to kill any grass or plants.
Safety tips for Using Power Shears
As with all [http://cuttingpowertools.com/category/cutting_power_tools/>cutting power tools], care must be taken to protect the user harm. If necessary, wear protective goggles, hard hats and leather gloves. Do not use power tools out where they can be tripped over or accidentally started. Obviously, if someone has small children, any type of cutting power tool should be kept out of reach.
