Pro-Tip: To maintain the cleanest cut and prevent plant disease, keep your blades sharp and resin-free. After each use, wipe the blades with a cloth dampened with a light machine oil or a specialized hedge trimmer lubricant; this prevents sap buildup and ensures the 4,000 SPM motor doesn't have to work harder than necessary.
