Ua puka koke mai paha nā manaʻo no ka hoʻolālā ʻana i nā mea paʻahana kūikawā ma hope koke o ka ʻoki ʻana o ke kanaka mua i ka mea kanu.Ma kahi o 2,000 makahiki aku nei, ua kākau kekahi Roma i kapa ʻia ʻo Columella e pili ana i ka vinitoria falx, kahi mea paʻi hua waina me ʻeono mau hana like ʻole.
ʻAʻole au i ʻike i hoʻokahi mea hana ʻoki e hana i ʻeono mau mea like ʻole.Ma muli o kāu mau mea kanu a me nā makemake o ka māla, ʻaʻole paha ʻoe e pono i ka hapalua o nā mea hana like ʻole.Akā, ʻo ka mea nāna e hoʻoulu i nā mea kanu, pono paha i hoʻokahi mea paʻi.
E noʻonoʻo e pili ana i kāu mea e ʻoki ai i kūpono ka nui o ka mea hana no ke ʻoki.Nui nā māla e hoʻāʻo e hoʻohana i nā mea paʻi lima e ʻoki i nā lālā mānoanoa ʻaʻole hiki ke ʻoki pono me kēia mea hana.ʻO ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka mea paahana hewa ʻole hiki ke paʻakikī ke ʻoki ʻana, inā ʻaʻole hiki ʻole, a waiho i nā kumu haʻihaʻi e haʻalele i ka mea kanu.Hiki iā ia ke hōʻino i ka mea kani.
Inā loaʻa iaʻu hoʻokahi mea paʻi paʻi, ʻo ia paha he mau ʻokiʻoki me kahi lāʻau (ʻo ka mea a ka poʻe Pelekania i kapa ai he pruner) hiki ke hoʻohana ʻia e ʻoki i nā ʻōpala ma kahi o ka hapalua ʻīniha ke anawaena.ʻO ka ʻaoʻao hana o nā ʻāʻu lima he anvil a i ʻole bypass paha.I ka hoʻohana ʻana i nā ʻokiʻoki me kahi anvil, e kau ka maka ʻoi i ka ʻaoʻao palahalaha o ka ʻaoʻao ʻē aʻe.Hana ʻia nā ʻaoʻao pālahalaha me ka metala palupalu i ʻole e hoʻopololei i nā ʻaoʻao ʻoi aku.ʻO ka ʻokoʻa, ʻoi aku ka hana o nā ʻokiʻoki e like me nā ʻoki, me ʻelua mau pahi ʻoi e heʻe ana ma mua o kekahi.
ʻOi aku ka liʻiliʻi o nā ʻāhi anvil ma mua o nā ʻāʻī bypass a ʻike ʻia ka ʻokoʻa o ke kumukūʻai ma ka ʻoki hope loa!Nui nā manawa i ʻoki ʻia ai ka ʻāpana o ke kumu ma ka hope o ka ʻoki.Inā ʻaʻole i hui pono nā ʻaoʻao ʻelua, ʻaʻole paʻa ka ʻoki hope loa a e kau ʻia kahi kaula ʻili mai ke kumu i ʻoki ʻia.ʻO ka lau ākea a palahalaha hoʻi ka mea paʻakikī i ka mea paahana ke hoʻopili pono i ka lalo o ke koʻokoʻo e wehe ʻia.
ʻO kahi ʻokiʻoki he mea hana pono loa.Nānā mau au i nā moho no ke kaumaha, ke ʻano lima a me ke kaulike ma mua o ke koho ʻana i moho.Hiki iā ʻoe ke kūʻai i nā ʻoki kūikawā no nā keiki liʻiliʻi a hema paha.E ʻike inā he maʻalahi ka hoʻokala ʻana i nā lau ma kahi ʻāpana ʻāpana lima;loaʻa i kekahi poʻe i nā ʻili hoʻololi.
ʻAe, e neʻe kākou i ke poʻo inoa.He nui kaʻu ʻokiʻoki a loaʻa iaʻu nā ʻano mea paʻi paʻi like ʻole, me nā ʻāpana lima like ʻole.ʻO kaʻu ʻekolu ʻokiʻoki punahele me nā lima, e kau ana nā mea āpau mai kahi pā kokoke i ka puka kīhāpai.(No ke aha ka nui o nā mea kani? Ua hōʻiliʻili au iā lākou i koʻu kākau ʻana i ka puke The Book of Oruninga.
ʻO kaʻu ʻoki lima punahele ʻo ARS scissors.A laila aia kaʻu ʻoki Felco no ke ʻoki kaumaha a me kaʻu ʻoki Pica, nā ʻoki māmā aʻu e hoʻolei pinepine ai i loko o koʻu ʻeke hope i koʻu hele ʻana i waho o ka māla, ʻoiai inā ʻaʻole wau e hoʻolālā e ʻoki i kekahi mea.
No ka ʻoki ʻana i nā lālā ma luna o ka hapalua ʻīniha ke anawaena a ma kahi o hoʻokahi ʻīniha a me ka hapa ke anawaena, pono ʻoe i nā ʻoki.Ua like loa keia mea paahana me na kohi lima, koe nae ke kaumaha o na lau a he mau kapuai ka loihi o na lima.E like me nā ʻoki lima, hiki i ka hopena hana o nā secateurs ke anvil a i ʻole bypass.ʻO nā lima lōʻihi o nā loppers he leverage e ʻoki ai i kēia mau kumu nui a hiki iaʻu ke hōʻea i ke kumu o ka ulu lāʻau rose a i ʻole nā ​​​​gooseberry me ka ʻole o ka hoʻouka ʻia e nā kākalaioa.
Loaʻa i kekahi mau loppers a me nā ʻū ʻā lima i kahi mīkini a ratchet paha no ka mana ʻoki ʻoi aku.Makemake au i ka mana ʻoki ʻoi aku o ka Fiskars loppers, kaʻu mea hana punahele o kēia ʻano.
Inā ʻoi aku ka pono no ka ʻoki ʻana i ka mana ma mua o ka mea e hiki ai i kaʻu mau ʻako kīhāpai ke hāʻawi, hele au i koʻu hale hoʻoheheʻe a hopu i kahi ʻike māla.ʻAʻole like me ka ʻike hana lāʻau, ua hoʻolālā ʻia nā niho ʻoki ʻoki e hana ma luna o ka lāʻau hou me ka ʻole o ka paʻa ʻana a i ʻole ka pipili.ʻO nā mea maikaʻi loa ka mea i kapa ʻia ʻo Iapana (i kapa ʻia i kekahi manawa "turbo", "hoʻomaka ʻekolu" a i ʻole "frictionless"), e ʻoki wikiwiki a maʻemaʻe.Hele mai lākou a pau i nā ʻano like ʻole, mai nā mea i pelu a kūpono i loko o kāu ʻeke hope a hiki i nā mea hiki ke lawe ʻia i loko o ka puʻu kāʻei.
ʻAʻole hiki iā mākou ke haʻalele i ke kumuhana o nā ʻili kīhāpai me ka ʻole o ka haʻi ʻana i nā kaulahao, kahi mea pono akā pilikia.Hiki ke ʻoki koke i kēia mau ʻuala a i ʻole nā ​​ʻili uila i nā lālā nui o nā kānaka a i ʻole nā ​​kumu lāʻau.Inā pono ʻoe e ʻoki i ka pā hale i piha i nā mea kanu, ʻoi aku ka nui o ka chainsaw.Inā ʻo ka nui o kāu ʻoki e kuhikuhi i kahi mea hana, hoʻolimalima i hoʻokahi, a ʻoi aku paha ka maikaʻi, e hoʻolimalima i kahi loea i loaʻa kahi kaulahao e hana ia no ʻoe.
ʻO ka ʻike me ka chainsaw ua hoʻonui i ka mahalo no kēia mea paʻi pono akā pilikia.Inā makemake ʻoe i ka wili kaulahao, e kiʻi i ka nui kūpono no ka lāʻau āu e ʻoki nei.Ke hana ʻoe, e kūʻai pū i nā aniani, nā headphone, a me nā kuli.
Inā loaʻa iā ʻoe nā pā maʻamau, pono ʻoe i nā mea ʻoki pā e mālama pono iā lākou.ʻO nā ʻako lima e like me nā ʻāpana nunui a kūpono no nā pā liʻiliʻi.No nā pā nui a i ʻole ka ʻoki ʻoi aku ka wikiwiki, e koho i nā ʻāhi uila me nā ʻōpala pololei a me nā lau oscillating e lawelawe ana i ke kumu like me nā ʻako lima.
Loaʻa iaʻu kahi pā privet lōʻihi, he pā ʻāpala ʻē aʻe, he pā pahu pahu, a me ʻelua mau ʻano ʻē aʻe, no laila hoʻohana wau i nā ʻāhi uila.ʻO nā ʻoki pā paʻa i hoʻohana ʻia i ka pākaukau e leʻaleʻa i ka hana e hoʻoikaika iaʻu i ka ʻoki ʻana i nā mea kanu exotic.
I loko o nā kenekulia, ua hoʻomohala ʻia nā mea paʻahana he nui no nā kumu kūikawā.ʻO nā laʻana e like me nā makau ʻeli kumu waina ʻulaʻula, nā puʻupuʻu kiko no ka ʻoki ʻana i nā ʻōpuʻu strawberry, a me nā mea ʻoki pā paʻa paʻa i loaʻa iaʻu a hoʻohana e piʻi i luna o nā pā lōʻihi.
ʻO nā mea hana kūikawā āpau i loaʻa, ʻaʻole wau e manaʻo e hoʻohana i kahi kaulahao lālā kiʻekiʻe.He kaulahao wale nō ka lōʻihi me ke kaula ma kēlā me kēia welau.Kiola ʻoe i ka mea hana ma luna o kahi lālā kiʻekiʻe, hopu i ka wēlau o kēlā me kēia kaula, kau i ke kaulahao niho i waenakonu o ka lālā, a huki i nā kaula i lalo.Hiki i nā hopena ke pōʻino, a i ka hihia ʻoi loa, hāʻule nā ​​lālā ma luna o ʻoe ke ʻoki ʻo ia i nā ʻili lōʻihi mai ke kumu.
ʻO ka ʻoki pole kahi ala maʻalahi e hana ai i nā lālā lōʻihi.Hoʻopili ʻia i kaʻu ʻoki ʻoki ʻoki ʻoki a me kahi ʻoki ʻoki, a i koʻu lawe ʻana i ka mea hana ma o ka lāʻau a hiki i ka lālā, hiki iaʻu ke koho i ka mīkini ʻoki.Hoʻoikaika ke kaula i nā ʻoki ʻoki, e hiki ai i ka mea hana ke hana like me ka ʻako lima, koe wale nō ka hele ʻana i nā wāwae he nui i luna o ka lāʻau.He mea hana pono ka pole pruner, akā na'e, 'a'ole like me ka 6-in-1 grape pruner mai Columella.
