FAQs

What is the main purpose of this leaf rake?

The Faithfull Countryman Leaf Rake is primarily designed for efficiently gathering leaves, grass clippings, and other light garden debris from lawns and similar surfaces.

What is the handle made of?

The handle is made of European ash, sourced from FSC® certified sustainable forests, and is lacquered for weather protection.

How wide is the rake head?

The working width of the rake head is 540mm.

Is the foam grip replaceable?

The foam grip is integrated for comfort and is not designed to be replaceable. If it becomes significantly worn, you may need to consider a tool with a replaceable grip.

Can this rake be used for heavy garden waste?

This rake is intended for light debris such as leaves and grass. It is not designed for heavy materials like wet soil, rocks, or thick branches, which could damage the tines.

What are the overall dimensions of the rake?

The overall length of the rake is 1,720mm, and the working width is 540mm.

How should I store the rake to ensure its longevity?

Store the rake in a dry place, ideally hung, to protect the wooden handle from moisture and prevent damage to the tines.

Troubleshooting

Tines are bending excessively

Ensure you are only using the rake for light debris like leaves and grass clippings. Avoid raking wet, heavy soil or stones, which can bend the tines.

Handle feels rough or splintered

Lightly sand the affected area of the wooden handle. Apply a coat of clear varnish or wood sealant for protection and a smoother finish. Ensure it's completely dry before use.

Debris is not being gathered effectively

Ensure the tines are clean and free from packed-in debris. Adjust your raking technique; a slight scooping motion can sometimes help gather more material.
