FAQs
Are these blades replaceable?
The blades are designed for longevity, but for long-term maintenance, contact Wolf Garten support regarding their specific replacement part service.
Can I use these to trim small hedges?
No, these shears are specifically designed for grass and soft lawn edging. Using them on woody hedge stems may damage the blades.
How do I activate the rotating head feature?
The cutting head is designed to rotate 180 degrees manually; simply twist the head assembly to your desired angle to suit the specific edge profile.
Does the 10-year guarantee cover accidental damage?
The guarantee typically covers manufacturing defects. Consult your warranty documentation for specific terms regarding accidental damage.
Are these suitable for left-handed users?
Yes, the ergonomic handle design and rotating head make the tool accessible for both left- and right-handed users.
Should I sharpen the blades?
The blades are precision-ground. If they lose their edge, they should be sharpened by a professional to ensure the factory-set tension and alignment remain intact.
Troubleshooting
Blades feel stiff or drag while cutting
Clean the blade surfaces to remove accumulated sap and apply a light machine oil to the pivot point.
Blades are not cutting grass cleanly
Check for debris wedged between the blades and ensure the pivot screw is properly tightened.
Safety lock is difficult to engage
Ensure the blades are fully closed and free of grass clippings that might be obstructing the lock mechanism.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These shears are ready to use directly out of the box. To maintain optimal performance, keep the blades clean by wiping them with a soft, dry cloth after every use to remove sap and moisture. For long-term storage, apply a light coat of machine oil to the blades to prevent corrosion. Periodically inspect the central pivot point and tighten if necessary to ensure the blades continue to bypass smoothly. Store the shears in a dry place with the safety lock engaged to protect the blade edge from damage.
