Electric pruning shears are incredibly convenient tools, but without proper daily maintenance and regular care, they can become damaged or have a reduced lifespan. Here are some recommendations for blade cleaning both before and after use.
Caution: Always turn off the tool and remove the battery pack before inspecting or maintaining it.
Caution: Wear safety gloves when handling the cutting blades to avoid injury.
Note: Failure to maintain the blades may result in excessive friction and shorten the operating time per battery charge.
Lubrication
Before or during operation, apply low-viscosity oil (such as machine oil or spray lubricant) to the cutting blades every three hours.
To lubricate, press the tip of the oil bottle against the lubrication hole.
Post-Operation Cleaning
After use, clean the cutting blades with a wire brush to remove dust and burrs. Wipe the blades with a cloth and then apply low-viscosity oil (such as machine oil or spray lubricant).
Maintaining your electric pruning shears with these simple steps will help ensure their longevity and optimal performance. Regular cleaning and lubrication are key to keeping your tool in top condition, ready for the next task.
