REMOVING BLADE SET
To remove blade set, first make sure your clipper motor is switched off, then push down on blade
with one or both thumbs (Figure I) and slide blade off blade hinge (Figure L). If your blade hinge
should snap closed and is flush with the clipper, use a small standard screw driver to pry the tongue
of the hinge out (Figure J). NOTE: Hair may accumu late in the front cavity of the housing under
the blade. If this hap pens, you can clean out the hair by brushing out the cavity with a small brush
or an old toothbrush while the blade is off the clipper (see Figure K for location of cavity being
referenced).

REPLACING OR CHANGING BLADE SET
To replace or change your blade set, slide the blade bracket onto the hinge of the clipper (Figure L)
and with the clipper turned "ON", push the blade towards the clipper to lock into position.
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
Blades should be oiled before, during, and after each use. If your clipper blades leave streaks or
slow down, it's a sure sign blades need oil. The clipper should be held in the position shown in
Figure M to prevent oil from getting into the motor. Place a few drops of Andis Clipper Oil on the
front and side of the cutter blades (Figure N). Wipe excess oil off blades with a soft dry cloth.
Spray lubricants contain insufficient oil for good lubrication, but are an excellent clipper blade
coolant. Always replace broken or nicked blades to prevent injury. You can clean the excess hair
from your blades by using a small brush or worn out toothbrush. To clean the blades we suggest to
immerse 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 and dry blades with a dry cloth and start clipping again.
If upon cleaning your blades you find that the blades will still not cut, there may be a few fine
pieces of hair trapped between the upper and lower blade. If this happens, you will need to snap
the blade off the clipper. Proceed to slide the upper blade to one side, without loosening the
tension spring or moving the upper blade completely out from under the tension spring (See
Figure O for position of blade). Wipe the surface between the blades clean with a dry cloth, then
place a drop of clipper oil where the upper and lower blades meet and also in the guide slot of
the tension spring (Figure O). Now slide the upper blade to the opposite side of the lower blade
and repeat this process. After completing this procedure, slide the upper blade, centering it over
the lower blade. Handle or store your Andis clipper with the blades down so excess oil will not run
into the clipper case.
