FAQ

How should I clean my Felco F2 after use?
After each pruning session, wipe the blade with a dry cloth to remove sap and debris. For tougher buildup, a small brush or rust eraser works well too. Regular cleaning helps maintain sharpness and prevents rust.

How often should I oil my Felco F2?
Apply a light oil to the pivot area and blade after cleaning. This keeps the action smooth and helps protect against corrosion—especially if pruners are used frequently.

Do I need to sharpen the blade?
Yes—when cutting requires more effort or the cut isn’t clean, use a sharpening tool designed for pruning shears. Regular sharpening ensures crisp cuts and healthier plants.

Can I replace worn parts on the F2?
Absolutely—Felco offers replaceable blades, springs, nuts & bolts, shock absorbers, and more. Most wear parts are sold separately, making long-term ownership affordable.

What if my F2 sat outside and got rusty?
Start with a wire brush and lightly oil the tool. Disassemble if needed to clean pivot areas and re-grease before reassembly. Proper storage inside also prevents future rust.
