Troubleshooting

Shear is not cutting effectively.

Check the blades for damage or wear and replace them if necessary. Make sure the material thickness does not exceed the shear's capacity.

Shear does not start.

Ensure the battery is fully charged and correctly inserted. Check the power switch and make sure it is in the 'on' position.

The swivel head is difficult to adjust.

Clean the swivel mechanism and apply a small amount of lubricant. Ensure that no debris is obstructing the adjustment.
