The Razorsharp Advance Loppers are designed to cut living branches up to 40mm (1.6 inches) in diameter.
While they might cut thinner dead branches, the bypass action is optimized for live wood. For deadwood, anvil loppers are generally recommended.
Wipe the blade clean with a damp cloth after each use. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the coating. Light lubrication can also help maintain smoothness.
It means the loppers use a gear system to multiply the force applied to the handles, providing up to 25% more mechanical advantage for easier cutting.
Bypass loppers have two curved blades that 'bypass' each other like scissors, making clean cuts on living wood. Anvil loppers have a sharp blade that closes onto a flat surface, better suited for tougher, deadwood.
Spear and Jackson offers a 10-year guarantee on the Razorsharp Advance Loppers.
Replacement parts availability may vary. Check the manufacturer's website or contact customer support for information on blade replacement or sharpening services.
Check for debris or sap buildup around the pivot point and blades. Clean thoroughly and lubricate with a light machine oil.
Ensure the branch is within the 40mm cutting capacity. Check if the blades need sharpening. Make sure the bypass action is correctly aligned with the branch.
Ensure grips are clean and dry. If the grips show signs of wear, consider replacing them if possible or use gardening gloves for added grip.
Wipe the blade dry immediately after use and store in a dry location. Light rust can often be removed with a soft cloth and a small amount of oil. The PTFE coating offers some protection, but prolonged exposure to moisture should be avoided.
Setup: The loppers are ready for immediate use upon unpacking. No assembly is required.
Compatibility: These loppers are designed for cutting living branches and general garden pruning. They are most effective on branches up to 40mm (1.6 inches) in diameter. For best results, use the bypass action for live wood and avoid attempting to cut excessively thick or dead branches, which could damage the blades or mechanism.
