CLIPPER BLADE ADJUSTMENT
Your Andis adjustable clipper blade set is easy to adjust. From coarse to fine
cuts, all that is needed is a flick of the adjustment lever with your thumb.
In the upright position, the blades are set for the finest, or shortest cuts
(Figure D).

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.
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
The blades should be oiled before, during, and after each use. If your
clipper blades leave streaks or slow down, it's a sure sign the blades need
oil. Place a few drops of Andis Clipper Oil on the front and side of the
cutter blades (Figure E). Wipe excess oil off the blades with a soft, dry cloth.
Spray lubricants contain insufficient oil for good lubrication, but are an
excellent clipper 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 an old toothbrush. To clean the blades we suggest immersing 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, dry the blades with a
dry cloth, and start clipping again.
REMOVING AND REPLACING THE BLADE SET
To remove the blades, first unplug the clipper from the electrical outlet.
Turn the clipper upside down so that the blade teeth are pointing down.
You may want to place the clipper on a flat surface to do this. Unscrew the
screws on the blades. Remove the blades.
To replace the blades, put the smaller, upper blade back into position
(Figure F). Line up the screw holes in the bottom blade with the two holes in
the clipper housing, and replace the screws. Do not tighten down the
screws completely. Turn the clipper over and align the lower blade so the
6
teeth on both blades are parallel, but with the lower blade's teeth slightly
above the upper blade's teeth. Failure to do this may result in nipping the
skin when cutting the hair.
USE GUIDELINES FOR LITHIUM-ION BATTERIES
1. The lithium-ion battery included with your clipper does not develop a
"memory effect" like a nickel-metal hydride (NiMH), or nickel cadmium
(NiCd) battery. You can plug the adapter cord into the clipper at any time
for a full charge, or even use the battery before a charge cycle is
complete. Like most rechargeable batteries, lithium-ion batteries perform
best when used frequently.
2. For maximum battery life, store the clipper in a partially discharged
condition if the unit will be unused for several months.
3. Do not store clipper under 50°F or over 104°F. Do not expose clipper to
excessively damp conditions.
4. Avoid locating the clipper near heat vents, radiators, or in direct sunlight.
Optimum charging will result where the temperature is stable. Sudden
increases in temperature can result in the battery receiving less than a full
charge.
5. Many factors influence lithium-ion battery life. A battery that has received
heavy use or is more than a year old may not give the same run-time
performance as a new battery pack.
6. New lithium-ion batteries, unused for a period of time, may not accept a
full charge. This is normal and does not indicate a problem with the
battery or charger. The battery will accept a full charge after several
cycles of clipper use and recharging.
7. Disconnect the adapter cord from the AC outlet if extended periods of
non-use are anticipated.

BATTERY DISPOSAL

The product you have purchased contains a rechargeable battery. The
battery is recyclable. At the end of its useful life, under various state and
local laws, it may be illegal to dispose of this battery into the municipal
waste stream. Check with your local solid waste officials for details in your
area for recycling options or proper disposal.
