Troubleshooting
Hoe head feels loose on the handle.
Ensure the handle is properly inserted into the socket. If the socket is slightly worn, consider using a shim or tightening screw if your handle system allows for it.
Rust spots appearing on the steel.
While the steel is corrosion-resistant, prolonged exposure to moisture without drying can lead to minor surface rust. Gently scrub with a wire brush and ensure the tool is dried after cleaning.
Difficulty loosening compacted soil.
Ensure you are using a sturdy handle and applying steady, even pressure. For very hard soil, lightly moistening the area beforehand can help.
