Felco Pruner #7 Maintenance - Prune Like a Pro

[pedwards14]

Gary, Your video is thorough and well-paced. Thank you for doing this. I am a bit nervous about the sharpening step, though, having never used a sharpening stone before. Do you have any tips, or another video perhaps, that focuses just on sharpening? Thanks again.

@pedwards14 If you look closely, we use a marks-alot to indicate when we have matched the correct angle of the sharpening process. A little WD-40 will lubricate the cutting action of the stone. Check out the video "Sharpening a Stone" on our channel.

it was great seeing your video.I have 2 questions.

1.Where do you purchase an orange rind oil.Cannot see this product anywhere.

2.I have a felco f2 pruner.What is the tool name/size required to remove the nut/bolt?the tool which came with the package is too flimsy.

By the way the camera was superb.great clarity and nice close-ups.what camera was that?

1) You can purchase the orange oil from my supplier "neutron industries" in AZ.

When you order the oil, you can also ask for the special spray bottle. The oil will dissolve ordinary plastic bottles.

2) You can use a boxed-end metric wrench to loosen the serrated keeper. It should be about 8mm or so. A 10mm open-end metric wrench will also adjust the pivot nut.

The camera was the Panasonic HVX-200.

Thanks Gary. Excellent instructional video to make maintenance on your pruners easy and fast. Do one for loppers and hand shears next!
