FAQs

What kind of branches are these loppers best for?

These loppers are best suited for cutting dead and hard woody branches.

How do I extend the handles?

Loosen the locking mechanism, extend the handles to your desired length, and then tighten the locking mechanism.

How do I maintain the blade?

Clean the blade after each use, apply a light coat of oil, and sharpen it regularly.

What is the ratchet mechanism?

The ratchet mechanism allows you to cut through thicker branches in stages, reducing the amount of force needed.

Are these loppers suitable for green wood?

While they can cut green wood, they are specifically designed for dead and woody branches. Bypass loppers are often better for green wood.

How long are the handles when fully extended?

The handles extend to a maximum length of 1030mm.

How should I store these loppers?

Troubleshooting

Loppers are difficult to close or open.

Check for debris or sap on the blade and mechanism. Clean thoroughly and lubricate if necessary.

Cutting is not efficient.

Ensure the blade is sharp. Sharpen the blade or replace it if necessary. Check the ratchet mechanism for proper function.

Telescopic handles won't stay locked.

Tighten the locking mechanism or inspect for damage. Replace if necessary.
