Garden Tool Care
A simple reset after each gardening session.
Remove soil and plant debris
Clear loose debris using a method suitable for the actual item. Follow the supplied care instructions before using water or cleaning products. Do not assume an item is dishwasher safe or suitable for prolonged soaking.
Check before the next task
Inspect handles, fastenings, blades and fittings before use. Stop using equipment that is loose, cracked or otherwise damaged. Do not improvise repairs that could affect safe handling.
Dry and store thoughtfully
Dry equipment as instructed and store it in a sheltered, stable place. Keep cutting edges covered when a suitable cover is provided. Sharp or pointed tools should be inaccessible to children and pets.
Care for watering accessories
Empty residual water when appropriate, clear visible blockages without damaging openings and check connections before use. Follow item instructions for seasonal storage; do not assume resistance to freezing temperatures.
Keep care matched to the product
Different materials and finishes need different treatment. Ask us if the supplied instructions do not resolve a care question. This general guide does not replace product-specific directions.
