BEFORE carrying out any work on the clipper first disconnect from the mains power supply 

These need to be inspected on a regular basis, and replaced periodically to insure maximum motor performance 
and life expectancy. Remove the brush cap by unscrewing it  - you will need a broad-based screwdriver - (See fig 

7) Remove both the plastic cap and the brass cap using slight pressure on the side of the cap in a "finger picking" 

action and withdraw the carbon brush and spring assembly. Check the length of the carbon, comparing both the 

roundand square sections of the brush. When the square section has been reduced to the length of the round 

section replacement is necessary to prevent possible damage to the motor armature. (expensive!) 

Carbon brushes MUST be replaced as sets - not individually. Use ONLY Oster genuine Carbon Brushes  Avoid 

substitutes IMPORTANT! When ORDERING BRUSHES specify Model Number of clipper and voltage rating. 

When reinstating the brush, make sure that the sharp pointed corners of the brush are aligned with the triangular 
notches in the brass cap and then the nylon cap over the brush spring and pressing down to seat the brass cap into 

the brush tube. Replace the outer housing cap and screw down tightly to prevent loosening  

 
Cleaning: 

BEFORE carrying out any work on the clipper first disconnect from the 

mains power supply 

Cleaning of the blades and inside of the clipper head (See fig 3) should be 

thoroughly carried out after every clipping session to avoid a build up of 

hair and dirt. Remove all traces of oil and hair with a small stiff brush and 

wiped clean with a dry clean cloth. The use of an airline is ideal - if 
available. Failing that, use a small oil paint brush – the stubby type – This 

will enable you to remove most of the muck, after which a good “blow” 

will usually do the rest!  Try to avoid a build up of dirt and hair – it makes 

cleaning easier!  

When completely free from hair clippings and oil, re oil all working parts 

within the head and likewise to the blades to prevent any occurrence of 
rust. Remember even the smallest spots of rust can have an adverse 

effect on the cutting performance of the blades - in some cases making 

clipping impossible. 

 

Storage: 

When not in use, having been thoroughly cleaned and oiled, the machine should be stored in a dry place preferably 

in your house. Do not leave in tack rooms, stables, damp grooming parlours, cowsheds and dairy parlours or 

similar places. The same should apply to all blades. Keep oiled and dry at all times.
