Care And Servicing Of Your Andis Clipper Blades - Andis MBG-2 Manual De Uso Y Cuidado

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 F 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 G). 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 tooth brush. To clean the blades we suggest to
immerse the blades only into a shallow pan of Andis Blade Care Plus,
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 H 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 H). 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.
CHANGING THE BLADE DRIVE ASSEMBLY
If your clipper blades no longer cut properly (be sure to try more than one
blade, since the blade currently being used may be dull), it could be that
your blade drive assembly needs replacement. Please contact an Andis
authorized service station for replacement.
SERVICING OF A DOUBLE-INSULATED CLIPPER
In a double-insulated clipper, two systems of insulation are provided instead
of grounding. No grounding means is provided on a double-insulated
clipper, nor should a means for grounding be added. Servicing a double-
insulated clipper requires extreme care and knowledge of the system, and
should be done only by an Andis authorized service station. Replacement
parts must be identical to those parts being replaced. A double-insulated
clipper is marked by the words "double insulation" or "double insulated".
The symbol
may also be marked on the appliance.
