HOW TO USE FOR OPTIMAL PERFORMANCE

1. For Digging & Trenching: Use the sharp corners and straight edge for clean, vertical cuts in soil. The blade width is ideal for clearing loose material quickly.
2. For Mixing Concrete/Mortar: The flat, square blade is perfect for folding and turning mix in a barrow or on a slab. The epoxy coating resists alkaline corrosion from cement.
3. For Moving Materials: Load the blade fully, using your foot on the shoulder if needed. The design allows you to carry substantial weight with stability.
4. Care & Maintenance: Clean off mud and concrete after use. Store in a dry place. Periodically check the handle tightness. The epoxy coating minimises rust, but a light oil on the blade can extend its life further.
