Default batteries!

...

I bought a hedge trimmer and a cutter both battery operated. Didnt use
(medical reason) for 2 years. Now cant get batteries to take a charge.
Have checked charger and engines, all okay. Is this normal? Any
solution?



If they have been allowed to discharge fully and then stay that way for a
couple of years then they may no longer function properly.
You don't say how long you had them before they were left unused - the
batteries may just be old and need replacing.
