Troubleshooting
Tool feels loose in hand
Ensure your hand is positioned correctly on the ergonomically shaped handle, utilizing the soft grip component for maximum comfort and security. The angled end is designed to prevent slippage.
Soil not loosening effectively
For very hard or compacted soil, use a gentle rocking motion. Ensure the prongs are inserted adequately into the soil. For extremely tough conditions, consider a more robust tool if available.
Rust appears on the tool
While the Duroplast coating offers corrosion protection, prolonged exposure to moisture without cleaning can lead to minor surface rust. Clean the tool thoroughly and store it in a dry environment. Minor rust can often be removed with a soft cloth.
