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.

POWER ADJUSTMENT

Your Andis clipper has been adjusted to line voltage at the factory. However,
because of voltage variations, it may be necessary to adjust the power
setting for your area. If the power adjustment is off, you will usually notice a
"clatter" when the clipper is on or introduced into the hair. (It is normal for
your clipper to "clatter" for an instant when initially turned on).
TO ADJUST YOUR CLIPPER
1. Oil the blades.
2. The power screw is located in the lower part of the housing opposite the
switch (Figure D).
3. Turn your clipper ON.
4. Using a screwdriver that fits the slot, turn the power screw clockwise until
the clipper clatters continuously. Then turn the screw counterclockwise
carefully until the clatter ceases.
5. Your clipper is now adjusted to its optimum power setting.
The power screw is a special part and it must not be replaced by any other
screw except the original part of the appliance.
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. If you have a detachable blade unit, you can change
your blade in order to maintain a comfortable temperature; using multiple
blades of the same size is popular among groomers.
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. The clipper should be held in the position shown in Figure D to prevent
oil from getting into motor. Place a few drops of Andis Clipper Oil on the
front and side of the cutter blades (Figure E). 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
6
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 Clipper Oil
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 dry cloth, and start clipping again.
REMOVING AND REPLACING THE BLADE SET
To remove the blades, first unplug the clipper from the electrical outlet.
Turn the clipper upside down so that the blade teeth are pointing down.
You may want to place the clipper on a flat surface to do this. Unscrew the
screws on the blades. Remove the blades.
To replace the blades, put the smaller, upper blade back into position
(Figure F). Line up the screw holes in the bottom blade with the two holes in
the clipper housing, and replace the screws. Do not tighten down the
screws completely. Turn the clipper over and align the lower blade so the
teeth on both blades are parallel, but with the lower blade's teeth slightly
above the upper blade's teeth. Failure to do this may result in nipping the
skin when cutting the hair.
FACTORY REPAIR SERVICE
When the blades of your Andis clipper become dull after repeated use,
it is advised to purchase a new set of blades available through your Andis
Supplier or through an Andis Authorized Service Station. If you wish your
trimmer to be serviced as well, it should be carefully packed and mailed either
Parcel Post Insured, or U.P.S. to any Andis Authorized Service Station. To find
an Andis Authorized Service Station near you log on to www.andis.com or
contact our customer service department: 1-800-558-9441 (U.S.) or
1-800-335-4093 (Canada).
