User Maintenance; Care And Servicing Of Your Andis Clipper Blades - Andis RACD Instrucciones De Uso Y Cuidado

USING THE ATTACHMENT COMBS
You can set the blades for a longer cut by using any of the attachment combs made
for your Andis clipper. The combs mount easily; simply slip the cutter blade teeth into
comb and snap the comb down (Figures D & E). To remove, simply snap off. These
attachment combs guide hair into the blades and give you precise control of hair
lengths. The length of trim is indicated on the attachment comb. Use the chart to find
the approximate lengths of cut. Different blade angles in relation to the skin, thickness
and texture of the hair will vary the cutting length.

USER MAINTENANCE

The internal mechanism of your trimmer 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.
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. Hold the clipper with the blades
pointing down 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 F). 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 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.
BLADE & CLIPPER/TRIMMER 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. Some blade sets can be resharpened–contact Andis
Company for information on resharpening. If you have a problem contacting your
Andis supplier, contact the Andis Company customer service department at
1-800-558-9441 or email at info@andisco.com.
CAUTION: Never handle your Andis clipper while you are operating a water faucet,
and never hold your clipper under a water faucet or in water. There is danger of
electrical shock and damage to your clipper. Andis Company will not be
responsible in case of injury due to this carelessness.
