BLADe SHARPeNING (MODeL BAB604Rc)
BabylissPro cutting blades are ground from the finest quality steel with carbon and
are hardened to extend the cutting performance. As with any cutting appliance, the
cutting edges become dull from repeated usage. Increasing blade tension to force
the blade cutting that would cause the clipper to overheat and reduce its motor life.
When the blade no longer cuts smoothly, sharpening is required or replace it with new
BabylissPro blade set (model BAB604RC).
