CORDLESS OPERATION
When the clipper is running on a full charge the green Full Battery Indicator light
will blink. After approximately 90 minutes of use, the green Full Battery Indicator
light will turn off and the green Low Battery Indicator light will turn on.
Once the batteries have fully run down (after approximately 120 minutes of use),
the red Recharge Battery Indicator light will turn on, indicating the clipper should
be recharged or used with the cord attached.
USE WITH ADAPTER CORD
If the clipper powers off in the middle of a clipping job, the adapter cord can be
attached to continue use in corded operation. When the clipper is running with
the adapter cord attached, the green Full Battery Indicator light will blink. The
clipper will not charge while in use with the cord attached.
USING THE ATTACHMENT COMBS
(Some models do not have combs and sizes will vary by kit)
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 (Figure B). 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. Different blade angles in relation to the skin, as well as thickness and
texture of the hair will vary the cutting length.
CLIPPER BLADE ADJUSTMENT
Your Andis adjustable clipper blade set is easy to adjust. For shorter cuts, use
thumb on shift key to slide button up to your desired length setting. To slide
back for longer cuts, press thumb on red length setting button and slide back.
USER MAINTENANCE
The internal mechanism of your motor clipper has been permanently lubricated
by the factory. Other than the recommended maintenance described in this
manual, no other maintenance should be performed, except by Andis Company,
or an Andis suthorized 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).
REPLACEMENT (REMOVAL) OF BLADE SET
When removing the blade, turn the clipper OFF. Push the blade away from the
clipper with your thumb, and the blade will pop off (Figure C). To replace or
change the blade set, first slide the length setting to the 1.9mm mark. Then fit
the black plastic tab on the blade set into the notch located at the bottom of the
clipper opening. Firmly push the blade into the clipper housing and it will snap
into place (Figure D).

BLADE TEMPERATURE
All manuals and user guides at all-guides.com
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.
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 that the 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 E). 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 start clipping again.
