Troubleshooting
Blades are sticking or not cutting cleanly.
Ensure the blades are clean and free of sap or debris. Check for any signs of rust and apply a light oil. If the issue persists, the blades may be dull and require sharpening.
The handle feels loose.
Inspect the connection between the blades and the handle. If there are visible screws or rivets, ensure they are tightened. For older models or if the wood is damaged, professional repair might be needed.
Rust spots appearing on the blades.
Gently scrub the rust spots with fine-grade steel wool or a rust remover suitable for garden tools. Clean and dry the blades thoroughly, then apply a light coat of oil to prevent future rusting.
