OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Before starting trimmer remove blade guard (some models may not have a
blade guard). Plug cord into electrical outlet, operate at 120 volt, 60 cycle
AC electrical current or as noted on the unit. To start trimmer, move ON/
OFF switch button to ON position, to stop, move switch button back to
original position. After using your Andis trimmer, rewrap cord and store in
a safe place.
UNIVERSAL AC/DC POWER ADAPTER
The unit is equipped with a universal AC/DC power adapter.
CHARGING TRIMMER
This battery charger is intended for use with Andis model BTF3 lithium-ion
battery with a rated capacity of 3.7V 2.8 Wh. Remove the trimmer and
AC adapter from the carton. Plug the adapter into a 120V AC outlet, or
according to your local power standards. Confirm the voltage available at
each overseas location before using the appliance. For connection to a
240-V supply, use an attachment plug adapter of the proper configuration
for the power supply receptacle. Note that the trimmer ON/OFF switch
must be in the OFF position for the battery to charge. Plug the adapter
cord directly into the bottom of the trimmer (Figure A). The green light on
the trimmer will turn on.
The trimmer has not been charged at the factory. Please charge the trimmer
for 2 hours before the first use for maximum performance. You can keep
the trimmer plugged into the adapter when not in use. The adapter will
maintain the battery at full charge and the green light will stay on. However,
we recommend that the adapter be unplugged if the trimmer won’t be used
for seven or more days.
FAILURE TO CHARGE
1. Make sure voltage is present at the wall outlet (confirm with an appliance
you know is working).
2. Check to make sure adapter cord is plugged firmly into trimmer. Twist the
adapter connector slightly to insure good electrical connection. If failure
to charge still exists, return trimmer to Andis or an Andis Authorized
Service Station for examination and repair or replacement.
USE WITH ADAPTER CORD
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
Your trimmer may come with attachment combs (varies by unit, see Figure B).
To use, slide front of attachment comb over the teeth of the blade. Snap
comb down over back of blade (Figures C & D).
BLADES
When trimming is complete, slide ON/OFF switch to OFF position and
remove the attachment comb (if being used). Lightly brush out blades with
the blade cleaning brush provided. For best results put a drop of Andis
Clipper Oil on the blade when necessary. Motor bearings are permanently
lubricated–do not attempt to oil. Blades should be handled carefully and
never bumped or used to cut dirty or abrasive material.
