4. Maintenance

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and performance of your Fiskars scissors.

• Cleaning: After each use, wipe the blades with a soft, dry cloth to remove any fabric fibers, adhesive residue, or dust. For stubborn residue, a cloth lightly dampened with rubbing alcohol can be used, followed by drying thoroughly.
• Lubrication: Periodically, apply a small drop of sewing machine oil or a similar light lubricant to the pivot point to maintain smooth operation. Wipe off any excess oil.
• Storage: Always store the scissors with the thumb lock engaged to protect the blade edges and prevent accidental injury. Store in a dry place to prevent rust.
• Sharpening: The high-grade stainless steel blades are designed to stay sharp for a long time. If sharpening becomes necessary, it is recommended to use a professional scissor sharpening service to maintain the RazorEdge and Micro-Tip precision.
