Blade lever replacement: (See fig 5) 

BEFORE carrying out any work on the clipper first 

disconnect from the mains power supply 

Replace the blade drive lever when it shows signs of 

becoming worn or in the event of clipper's performance 

starting to drop off, signs of tracking, when tapping or 

clicking noises occurring. This maintenance task can be 
easily undertaken by most operators and only requires 

the clipper nameplate to be removed by undoing the 

two screws and lifting off. Remove the plate to expose 

the drive lever bar which should be gently raised to 
remove it from it’s the two oval pins onto which it fits. 

Be careful not to dislodge or lose the two "felt brushes" 

positioned either side of the lever 

When replacing the drive lever seat it gently into the 

two pins using equal pressure. Grease lightly before 

replacing the head plate and finally fixing back the two 
screws. It is NOT necessary to use excessive amounts of 

grease 

Greasing: 

BEFORE carrying out any work on the clipper first 

disconnect from the mains power supply 

Please note that over greasing can cause leakage and 

reduce the operating efficiency of the machine. Check 

monthly by removing the metal nameplate. Then 

remove the nylon drive lever, metal link, and gear. 
Insert grease tube nozzle into the hole on the top of the gear post. NOTE: If grease does not come through, clean 

holes. Do NOT fill the cavity with grease. Replace the link and gear and add a small amount of grease to the teeth 

of the gear & linkage. Use only Oster Grease, which is specially formulated for double insulated clippers.
