Poor cutting performance

Try this solution

Clean and lubricate the blades

Over time, sap, resin, and other debris can accumulate on the hedge trimmer blades, causing them to stick or jam. Cleaning and lubricating the blades regularly helps maintain optimal cutting performance and extends blade life.


⚠️WARNING: Disconnect the spark plug before handling the blades to prevent the engine from starting accidentally.

⚠️WARNING: Always wear protective gloves when handling the cutting blades.

1. Remove any twigs, leaves, sap, or other debris lodged between the blades.

2. Clean the blades with a damp cloth, then apply a light coat of lubricant or blade oil along the cutting edges.

3. Clean the blades before and after each use to prevent the buildup of debris and plant residue.

4. Lubricate the blades regularly to ensure smooth operation and reduce wear.
