Garden Use & Safety

Take a moment to prepare the workspace.

Inspect and choose the right tool

Use equipment for its intended gardening task. Check for damage and secure fittings before use. Do not use hand tools as climbing equipment, supports for body weight or substitutes for electrical or construction tools.

Keep your working area clear

Work from a stable position. Keep cutting edges and pointed ends away from yourself, other people and pets. Choose suitable protective equipment for the actual task and follow all supplied directions.

Work around plants and services carefully

Check for hidden cables, irrigation lines and other services before disturbing soil. Take care around roots and stems. General gardening guidance does not guarantee plant health, yield or suitability for a particular growing condition.

Water and placement

Keep water away from electrical equipment and avoid creating slippery walkways. Position pots and supports securely. Recheck arrangements as plants grow or conditions change.

Storage and supervision

Store equipment securely after use. Gardening tools are not toys. Keep sharp and small components away from children and pets, and do not leave tools unattended in paths or planting beds.
