| Directions for Use:
Cordless:
Remove the charged trimmer from the charging stand. (Allow unit to charge at least 16 hours before initial operation.) Turn trimmer on using the “On/Off” switch located on the top of the unit. When finished using trimmer, turn off. Cover the blades with the blade guard. Insert trimmer into charging stand to recharge.
Corded:
The trimmer has been designed to use the auxiliary power cord if the battery is low and the unit will not turn on as a result. Plug in one end of the auxiliary cord into the unit and the other end into the charging stand. Turn the trimmer on using the “On/Off” switch. (If the trimmer does not turn on, then the battery may be fully depleted and may have to be partially charged prior to re-use. Allow battery to recharge for approximately 10 minutes.) When finished using trimmer, turn off. Cover the blades with the blade guard. Insert trimmer into charging stand to recharge.
Charging the Trimmer
Trimmer must be fully charged before operating, otherwise damage to the battery and electrical components could result. Allow trimmer to charge for at least 16 hours before initial operation.
- Plug the power cord of the charging stand into an outlet with the rated voltage for your trimmer.
- Ensure that the switch on the unit is in the "Off" position.
- Insert the trimmer into the charging stand so that the top of the unit is facing you and the contacts on the trimmer are aligned with the contacts on the charging stand. The top of the trimmer is the side with the switch and LED.
- The LED will turn on if the trimmer is inserted properly.
- The LED will stay on as long as the unit is in the charging stand or if the auxiliary cord is being used. The LED will turn off when the unit is removed from either the auxiliary cord or the charging stand or the power plug is removed from the outlet.
Changing Blades
This unit is designed with interchangeable blade attachments. It is not necessary to replace the actual blades.
Removing the blades: Turn the unit off and unplug the unit from the accessory cord if in use. Push the upper part of the blade away from the unit. The blade and blade attachment will "snap" off.
Replacing the blades: Turn the unit off and unplug the unit from the accessory cord if in use. Remove the blade attachment (see above). Align the replacement blade attachment and the trimmer by inserting the small tab on the bottom of the blade attachment into the cut out receptacle on the bottom of the trimmer. Push the upper part of the blade towards the unit. The blade attachment will snap securely into the trimmer. Do not force the blade attachment. If properly aligned, the blade will snap into the trimmer with little force. Forcing the blade attachment will cause damage to your trimmer and will void the warranty.
Tip: Wash your pet's hair before trimming; it can reduce blade damage and improve blade efficiency.
Comb Attachments
Unit comes with one 5 mm comb attachment and one 10 mm comb attachment. The 5 mm will leave hair approximately 3/16" long, while the 10 mm attachment will leave hair approximately 3/8" long.
Inserting the comb attachment: Insert the cutting edge of the blade into the comb attachment. Snap it tight at the back end of the blade by pushing down on the "Guide Comb Attachment" tab.
Removing the comb attachment: Push up on the "Guide Comb Attachment" tab until it releases from the metal blade.
Cleaning and Maintenance
Turn the trimmer's "On/Off" switch to "Off." Use the cleaning brush to sweep the trimmer body and blades clean of hair. Apply 1 to 2 drops of provided lubricating oil to the blades that move and to the "contact" section of the stationary blades. ALWAYS OIL BLADES BEFORE AND AFTER EACH USE.
