hinge of the clipper (Diagram I) and with the clipper turned "ON",
push the blade towards the clipper to lock into position.

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. 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).
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. Place a few drops of oil on the front and side of the cutter blades
(Diagram J). 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 clean 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 Diagram K 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 (Diagram K).
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.
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.
