Full details

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This product is ready for immediate use straight out of the packaging. No assembly or additional tools are required. To maintain the condition of the shovel, rinse it thoroughly with fresh water after use in salt water to prevent any grit from accumulating in the connection points. Although the materials are robust, store the shovel in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight when not in use to extend the life of the plastic. This shovel is compatible with all standard Hape sand and garden play sets.
