Arranging, positioning & care
Practical tips to help you get the most out of your choice.
Arranging tips
- Choose tools with a length that suits your build; it saves a lot of back pain.
- Hang tools up after use rather than laying them down; they stay sharp and last longer.
Position & placement
- Store wooden handles dry and under cover; moisture is the main cause of rot and cracks.
- Empty watering cans in winter and store them upside down, so they don’t get frost damage.
Care tips
- Rub an ash handle with linseed oil now and then; it keeps the wood supple and prevents splinters.
- Clean secateurs after use and keep the blade sharp; blunt secateurs bruise rather than cut.
