Care Tips
Keep clear of rocks or other solid objects that could damage the edges.
Adjusting: Make sure the tension is properly adjusted for your particular grass type. Reel mowers work like scissors - proper tension is imperative for optimal performance.
Maintenance: Store in a dry place. Wipe grass/dirt off blades after each use and spray with WD-40 or something similar that will protect from rust.
Damage Control: If there is a nick in the edge that folds towards the opposing blade (for shears, pruners, bypass tools), stop using immediately, as it can scrape against the flat of the opposing blade, causing permanent damage.
Maintenance: Carefully wipe off tools after each use and spray with WD-40 or something similar that will protect from rust.
Storage: Store bypass tools with blades closed. Store all tools in a dry place.
