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.
