YATO Grass and Shrub Shears YT-828357 18V with 2.0 Ah Battery, 100 W, 15,000 RPM, 1,300 RPM, 92 mm / 180 mm blades

The YATO Grass and Shrub Shears YT-828357 are a cordless 2-in-1 gardening tool designed for trimming lawn edges and shaping small hedges and shrubs. Supplied with an 18V 2.0 Ah Li‑Ion battery and charger, the compact device offers immediate use and a lightweight form factor for comfortable handling during short to medium tasks.

Advantages

The tool combines a powerful brushed motor with a high cutting-head rotational speed and a separate tool rotation speed to deliver efficient trimming. Interchangeable cutting heads allow quick switching between a 92 mm grass shear blade and a 180 mm hedge blade. Included battery compatibility with the YATO 18V system and a built-in charge-level indicator improve convenience and fleet flexibility for users who already own YATO batteries.

Suitable for

• Trimming lawn edges and small turf borders
• Shaping and tidying small hedges and shrubs
• Quick maintenance in allotments, patios, and residential gardens
• Light pruning and detail work around paths and flower beds

When it may not be suitable

This compact cordless tool is intended for light to medium garden tasks and may not be suitable for heavy-duty or professional hedge work on large properties. It is not compatible with battery systems from other brands, so users relying on non-YATO batteries will need to purchase the specified YATO 18V battery.

How to use

Charge the supplied 18V Li‑Ion battery fully in the included charger before first use. Fit the chosen cutting head—grass shear or hedge trimmer—until it locks into place, ensure the safety lock is disengaged, then hold the tool at the desired angle and activate the motor to begin trimming. Work with steady, overlapping passes for even results and avoid forcing the blades through branches thicker than the recommended cutting diameter. After use, switch off the tool, remove the battery and store both tool and battery in a dry place.

Usage recommendations

For best results trim when vegetation is dry, take multiple gentle passes for thick stems, and routinely check and clean blades after use. Follow safety instructions in the manual and wear appropriate protective equipment such as gloves and eye protection.
