BLADE ALIGNMENT
OIL
BLADE LEVER
•
Please note that clippers have been already oiled
and aligned. Check anyway the status of them.
• Blades must be realigned if they have been remo-
ved for cleaning or replacement.
• To realign the blades,simply match the upper and
bottom blades teeth up,point for point. teeth should
be (End of top blade teeth should be approximately
1.2mm back from bootom blade. Compare your
clipper blades with the sketch.)
• If blade alignment is incorrect, add a few drops of
oil to the blades,turn clipper on for a few momen-
ts, turn off and unplug. Loosen screws slightly and
adjust. Tihten screws after blade is aligned.
• To maintain your clipper in peak condition, the bla-
des should be oiled every few haircuts.
• Do not use hair oil,grease, oil mixed with kerosene
or any solvent. As the solvent will evaporate and leave
the thick oil which may slow down the blades motion.
• The lever is conveniently located near your thumb (if you’ re right-han-
ded) so it can easily be adjusted while the clipper is in your hand.
• The lever adds versatility to your clipper by allowing you to gradually
change the closeness of your cut without an attachment comb.
• When the lever is in the uppermost position,the blades will give you the
closest cut and leave the hair very short. Pushing the lever downward gra-
dually increases the cutting length.
• In its lowest position,the lever will leave the hair approximately the same
length as a #1 comb.
• The lever will also extend the use of your blades since a different cutting
edge is used in each setting.
• In addition, if extremely heavy hair cutting has jammed the blades, it will
help you remove hair that has become wedged between the two blades
without removing the blades.
