FAQs
Are these loppers suitable for green, living stems?
While they can cut green stems, anvil loppers are primarily designed for dry, woody material. Bypass pruners are usually preferred for living tissue to prevent crushing.
How long are these loppers?
These loppers have an overall length of 720mm.
What material is the blade made of?
The blade is constructed from high-quality carbon steel with a non-stick coating.
Can the blades be replaced?
The blades are designed for durability, but you should check with the manufacturer if you require replacement parts after years of heavy use.
How much do they weigh?
The total weight of the unit is 1085g.
Do I need to assemble the loppers?
No, the product is supplied fully assembled and ready for immediate use.
Troubleshooting
Loppers are binding or sticking during the cut
Clean the blade surface to remove built-up sap and ensure the pivot point is lubricated with light machine oil.
The tool feels stiff when opening or closing
Check the central pivot bolt for debris and tighten or loosen slightly as needed, then apply lubricant to the joint.
Cuts are ragged or tearing the branch
The blade likely requires sharpening. Use a whetstone or sharpening tool to restore the edge to the carbon steel blade.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These loppers arrive ready to use out of the box with no assembly required. To maintain peak performance, store the tool in a dry environment to prevent corrosion of the carbon steel components. After heavy use, clean the blade with a soft cloth and a mild solvent to remove sap; you may apply a light machine oil to the pivot point and blade to ensure the ratchet mechanism operates smoothly. Inspect the blade periodically for nicks or dullness, and use a sharpening stone if the cutting efficiency begins to decline. Always ensure the locking mechanism, if present, is engaged during storage for safety.
