Spear and Jackson Secateurs - Ergo Twist

These Spear and Jackson Razorsharp PRO secateurs have a maximum cutting capacity of 20mm (approximately 3/4 inch).

Yes, spare blade and spring packs are available for this model (MPN: 6959BLADE).

It is recommended to clean the blades after each use to remove sap and debris. Lubricate periodically, especially before long-term storage or after cleaning, to maintain performance and prevent rust.

The blades are made from drop-forged high carbon steel.

The 'Ergo Twist' handles are designed to promote a more natural hand and wrist position during use, which helps to minimize fatigue and increase comfort, especially during prolonged pruning tasks.

While they can cut through some smaller deadwood, they are primarily designed for live wood. For very hard or thick deadwood, a heavier-duty lopper or saw might be more appropriate to avoid damaging the secateurs.

These secateurs come with a 10-year guarantee.

Check and adjust the blade tension. Loosen the central pivot bolt slightly. Clean the pivot area and blades, then lubricate with light oil.

The blades may be dull. Sharpen them using a sharpening stone or file. Ensure the blade tension is correctly set – too loose can cause crushing, too tight can hinder clean cuts.

Clean the blades thoroughly with a damp cloth and a mild degreaser or rubbing alcohol. Ensure blades are dried completely and lubricated after cleaning.

Ensure you are using the correct grip and cutting technique. Verify the blade tension is not overly tight. The ergo-twist design aims to reduce fatigue, but prolonged use can still be tiring.

Clean the affected areas with a fine steel wool or a rust remover. Dry thoroughly and apply a light coat of oil to protect the carbon steel blades. Store in a dry environment.
