Charging the Unit
Before starting your clipper, it must be pre-charged for 16 hours before using it for the first time. This power unit is intended to be correctly oriented in a vertical or floor mount position.
To charge your clipper, remove clipper and transformer from packaging. Plug transformer directly into the clipper. Plug transformer into a 120V AC outlet as according to your local power standards. The green light on the clipper will turn on. You can keep the clipper plugged into the charger when not in use. The clipper has a Ni-Cad battery that cannot be damaged through over charging. After initial use, unit should be charged overnight. It is recommended to keep the clipper unplugged, if not in use for over seven days.
Cordless Operation
When the clipper is running on a full charge, the green light will remain on. When the batteries have run down, the red light will turn on. Indicating the clipper should be recharged or used with the cord attached.
User Maintenance
The internal mechanism of your clipper has been permanently lubricated at the factory. Other than the described maintenance, no other maintenance should be performed except by Andis Company.
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. The clipper should be held in position at a 45-degree angle 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. Wipe excess oil off blades with a soft dry cloth. Spray lubricants contain insufficient oil for good lubrication, but are excellent clipper coolant. Always replace broken or nicked blades to prevent injury. You can clean the excess hair from your blade by using a small brush or worn out toothbrush. To clean the blades, it is suggested to immerse the blades only in a shallow pan of Andis Clipper Oil 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.
Replacement (Removal) of 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 blade. Remove the blades. To replace the blades, put the smaller (upper) blade back in position. Line up the screw holes in the bottom blade with the two holes in the blade bracket, and replace screws. Do not tighten down screws completely. Turn clipper over and align lower blade so teeth on both blades are parallel, but with the lower blade's teeth slightly above the upper blade teeth. Failure to do this may result in nipping the skin when cutting hair.
Attaching the Clipper Combs
The clipper comb blade attachments mount easily. Just snap them on. Snap them off. You can always set the blades for a coarser cut by attaching any of the snap-on blade attachments made for your Andis clipper. To use the blade attachments, slip the cutter blade teeth into the blade attachment. Snap the blade attachment down; they snap on and off easily. These attachments guide hair into the clipper blades and give you precise control of hair lengths. The length of the trim is indicated on the blade attachment. Different blade angles in relation to the skin, thickness and texture of the hair will vary the cutting length.
Clipper Blade Adjustment
Your Andis adjustable clipper blade set is easy to adjust. From coarse to fine cuts, all that's needed is a flick of the adjustment lever with your thumb. In the upright position, blades are set for the finest or shortest cuts.
