Bypass secateurs have blades that bypass each other, ideal for live, green stems. Anvil secateurs have a blade that cuts against a flat surface (the anvil), best for thicker, woody stems.
Use a sharpening tool or whetstone designed for garden tools. Follow the angle of the blade's bevel for best results. Always sharpen away from yourself.
These secateurs are suitable for most pruning tasks. However, the Anvil secateurs are better for thicker, woody stems, while the Bypass secateurs are better for live, green stems.
Wipe the blades with a damp cloth after each use to remove sap and debris. Dry thoroughly before storing.
Use a light machine oil or a specific tool lubricant designed for garden tools.
Store the secateurs in a dry place, ideally in a tool sheath or case, to protect the blades and prevent rust.
Please refer to the product packaging or retailer for specific warranty information.
Yes, the ambidextrous locking catch makes them suitable for both left and right-handed users.
Check blades for sharpness and sharpen if necessary. Ensure you are using the correct blade type (Bypass or Anvil) for the stem being cut.
Clean and lubricate the pivot point. Check for any debris obstructing the mechanism. Ensure the locking catch is functioning correctly.
Clean the blades thoroughly and apply a rust inhibitor or lubricating oil. Store the secateurs in a dry place.
These secateurs require no complex setup; they are ready to use out of the packaging. The set is compatible with various plant types and gardening tasks, making it a versatile addition to any gardener's toolkit.
