Hi everyone, a quick question: Hedge Trimmer [View all]

I was given a Black & Decker hedge trimmer that has not been used for 2 years. I'm sure it needs attention as it is dusty and has been stored. Might be older than 2 years. Should I oil the blades or any other part of the trimmer? Since we are in the middle of storm warnings and more upcoming storms, obviously I won't be using it until spring arrives but I'd like to put in order. It works now. Model 455mm, 18". Any advice is appreciated.
