USING CHARGING STAND
Plug the adapter cord into the receptacle on the back of the charging stand (Figure F). Place trimmer
in the charging stand. The green light on the charger will turn ON. The on/off switch on the trimmer
must be in the OFF position for the battery to charge.
FAILURE TO CHARGE
1. Make sure voltage is present at the wall outlet (confirm with an appliance you know is working).
2. Make sure on/off switch on the trimmer is OFF.
3. Check to make sure adapter cord is plugged firmly into trimmer or charging stand. Twist the
adapter cord slightly to ensure good electrical connection.
4. If failure to charge still exists, return trimmer to Andis or an Andis Authorized Service Station for
examination and repair or replacement.
CORDED OPERATION
If the trimmer powers OFF in the middle of a trimming job, the power cord can be attached to
continue use in corded operation. When the trimmer is running with the power cord attached, the
green light will remain off, even if the battery is partially or fully discharged. The trimmer will not
charge while in use with the cord attached.
USING ATTACHMENT COMBS
(Some models do not have combs and sizes will vary by kit)
Your trimmer comes complete with 4 attachment combs: 1/16", 1/8", 1/4" and 3/8" (Figure G). To
use, slide front of attachment comb over the teeth of the blade. Snap comb down over back of
blade (Figures H & I). Use the trimming guide to find the approximate lengths of cut. Different blade
angles in relation to the skin, thickness and texture of the hair will vary the cutting length.
USER MAINTENANCE
Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children
without supervision.
The internal mechanism of your trimmer 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.
CARE AND SERVICING OF YOUR ANDIS TRIMMER BLADES
The blades should be oiled before,
during
, and after each use. If your trimmer blades leave streaks
or slow down, it’s a sure sign that the blades need oil. The trimmer should be held in the position
shown in Figure J to prevent oil from getting into the motor. Place a few drops of Andis Clipper Oil
on the front and side of the cutter blades (Figure K). Wipe excess oil off the blades with a soft dry
cloth. Spray lubricants contain insufficient oil for good lubrication, but are an excellent trimmer
coolant. Always replace broken or nicked blades to prevent injury. You can clean the excess hair from
