Full details

The Flymo 18V SimpliShear is designed for homeowners seeking an easy and flexible way to maintain garden shrubs and lawn edges. Its key benefit is the cordless freedom and lightweight design for comfortable operation, though its effectiveness is tied to the 18V battery's runtime for larger tasks. This product offers two interchangeable blades for versatile garden grooming, including a 20cm shrub blade for hedges and an 8cm blade for detailed work.

FAQs

What is the runtime of the 4.0Ah battery?

The runtime can vary based on usage intensity, but typically offers 30-40 minutes of operation for the Flymo 18V SimpliShear.

Can I use batteries from other brands with the Flymo 18V SimpliShear?

Yes, if the battery is part of the 18V POWER FOR ALL ALLIANCE, it is compatible with this tool.

How do I switch between the shrub blade and the grass blade?

Refer to the user manual for specific instructions on detaching and attaching blades. Ensure the tool is switched off and the battery is removed before changing blades.

Is this tool suitable for heavy-duty hedge trimming?

The 18V SimpliShear is designed for light to medium hedge trimming and detailed work. For very thick or dense branches, a more powerful tool might be required.

How long does the battery take to charge?

Charging time can vary depending on the charger and battery condition. Refer to the charger's specifications for precise charging times.

Where should I store the shears when not in use?

Store the shears in a dry, safe place, preferably with the blade cover attached to protect the blades and prevent accidents. Ensure children cannot access it.

Troubleshooting

Shears will not turn on

Ensure the battery is correctly inserted and fully charged. Check that the safety switch is engaged.

Blades are not cutting effectively

Check for any obstructions or debris on the blades. Ensure the blades are properly aligned and not damaged. Sharpen or replace if necessary.

Reduced runtime from the battery

The battery may be nearing the end of its lifespan. Ensure the battery is stored correctly and not exposed to extreme temperatures. Consider a replacement battery if performance significantly degrades.

Overheating during use

Cease operation and allow the tool to cool down. Ensure air vents are not blocked. If the issue persists, contact customer support.
