CAUTION!
The upper blade of the shearing head is only held by the tapered
X
pins of the chicken feet. If the shear-pressure adjustment head
is released too much, the upper blade can fly off and result in
injuries.
NOTE!
If the clipping pressure is too low, hair can gather between the
X
shearing blades. This results in a poor clipping quality. In this
case, clean the shearing blades as described in chapter 6.7.
