CLIPPER BLADE ADJUSTMENT
The blades on your Andis clipper can be adjusted to from shorter to longer. To adjust
blades, simply move the adjustment lever with your thumb (Figure C).
USER MAINTENANCE
The internal mechanism of your clipper has been permanently lubricated at the
factory. Other than the recommended maintenance described in this manual, no
other maintenance should be performed, except by Andis Company or an Andis
authorized service station.
To contact Andis directly, please call our Customer
Support Team at 1-800-558-9441 or email us at [email protected].
BLADE TEMPERATURE
Due to the high-speed nature of Andis clippers, please check for blade heat often,
especially on close cutting blades. If blades are too hot, dip the blades only into
Andis Blade Care Plus or apply Andis Cool Care Plus and then Andis Clipper Oil.
CARE AND SERVICING OF YOUR ANDIS CLIPPER BLADES
The blades should be oiled before, during, and after each use. If your clipper blades
leave streaks or slow down, it’s a sure sign the blades need oil. Place a few drops of
Andis Clipper Oil on the front and side of the cutter blades (Figure D). Wipe excess oil
off the blades with a soft, dry cloth. Spray lubricants contain insufficient oil for good
lubrication, but are an excellent clipper coolant. Always replace broken or nicked
blades to prevent injury. You can clean the excess hair from your blades by using a
small brush or an old toothbrush. To clean the blades we suggest immersing the
blades only into a shallow pan of Andis Blade Care Plus while the clipper is running.
Any excess hair and dirt that has accumulated between the blades should come out.
After cleaning, turn your clipper off, dry the blades with a soft dry cloth, and start
clipping again.
USE GUIDELINES FOR LITHIUM-ION BATTERIES
1. The lithium-ion battery included with your clipper does not develop a “memory
effect” like a nickel-metal hydride (NiMH), or nickel cadmium (NiCd) battery. You
can plug the adapter cord into the clipper at any time for a full charge, or even use
the battery before a charge cycle is complete. Like most rechargeable batteries,
lithium-ion batteries perform best when used frequently.
2. For maximum battery life, store the clipper in a partially discharged condition if the
unit will be unused for several months.
