Thank you for this video! I did it exactly as you showed, and it worked (first try, too!)😄
Correct way for center bolt adjustment:
1) Remove spring
2) Let the top handle drop under it's own weight. Adjust the nut until blade remains 1/3 open at the tip.
3) Tighten locking mechanism. Repeat step 2) and make micro adjustments if necessary.
This is the procedure used at the factory and can also be found on the official Felco homepage and youtube channel.
I love it 😂 mr robot 🤖
On my Felco #7 hand pruner, the rotating handle has seized up. How do I remove it for repair or replacement?
It depends on how badly it's seized up, but you should be able to just pull the handle off - don't be afraid to pull hard. It should pop off. Then clean it up well and apply a thin coating of a good lubricating grease before pushing the handle back on.
It worked! Thank you very much. I grasp the handle and pull as hard as I can and it just pops off. Now it just needs a good cleaning and fresh grease. Thanks again. You're brilliant.
I'm so glad it worked for you! Sometimes those handles can be really stubborn!

You 2 are cute 😃
Where to find the spring ?
With shipping it ends up being $7
Thank you
poor sound quality... will have to try another video
"Things are complicated to back together". No they're not.
Video made by two people that thought that what they were doing was difficult. The curve is all but gone from their blade due to improper sharpening technique.
Rookies.
@@misterx6490 save us Mister X , do a video. 🙏 Oh wait. There are probably plenty of videos on sharpening and stuff.
One question : I lost the spring of my shear and all in can find online is $7 for a spring with the shipping. Can you find better? Thank you.
Take care.
