Use only KarhiaPro trimmer branded spare
parts.
•
Do not use a broken stripping paw or belt.
Check the condition of the stripping paw and
belt
at regular intervals, and keep an eye on their
wear and tear. Unplug the machine from the
mains before you inspect it, or if you need to
touch the stripping paw or stripping arm.
•
Do not clean the machine with petrol, alcohol
or other solvents.
•
The machine must not be used for any pur-
pose other than for stripping the hair of wire-
coated
dogs who are
fi
t to be stripped. It may not be
used for human hair removal or cleaning
upholstery with long threads, for example.
2.5. Safety during use
•
The machine must be turned o
ff
in the fol-
lowing cases:
-
When you release your hold on the ma-
chine (for example, when taking a break
from
trimming).
-
When you adjust the comb distance.
•
The machine must be unplugged from the
mains in the following cases:
-
When you change the stripping paw or
check its condition.
-
When removing hairs from inside the
machine or around the belt package.
•
When you change the stripping paw, check
that it is secure by tugging it in the direction
of hair removal while holding on to the front
and rear surfaces of the stripping paw. The
stripping paw must be locked before starting
to strip.

Do not leave the machine on the trimming
table at the same time as the dog.

Avoid stripping near the dog’s ears. When

vacuum with high suction. The machine may
damage dogs’ ears.

trim straggly, tangled hair.
•
Do not use the machine without the stripping
paw.

If the machine does not switch o

former from the mains.
