Dragro Electric Pruning Shears User’s Guide

Dragro Electric Pruning Shears

INTRODUCTION

Gardeners love their hobby, but hand pruning can quickly lead to painful wrists, repetitive motion injuries and weariness due to the physical demands of the activity. Dragro Electric Pruning Shears (D02-30MM) are designed to lift this strain and make difficult horticultural jobs easy and efficient. These shears have a powerful brushless motor and high-tenacity Swiss SK5 high-carbon steel blades capable of cutting through branches up to 1.2 inches (30 mm) in diameter with a pull of the trigger. The system is designed with reliability in mind and comes equipped with two 21V 2Ah lithium batteries with a combined run life of 6-8 hours, which is more than enough for a full day in the orchard or garden. The Dragro D02-30MM is designed with safety and comfort in mind. It has an ergonomic, shockproof and non-slip handle, making it a great choice for professional landscapers and gardening lovers alike who want to boost their output up to 10 times higher than manual equipment.
