CARE AND SERVICING OF YOUR ANDIS TRIMMER BLADES
Blades should be oiled before, during, and after each use. If your trimmer blades leave streaks or slows down, it’s a sure sign blades need oil. The trimmer should be held in a position shown (Figure D) to prevent oil from getting into motor. Place a few drops of Andis Clipper Oil on the front and side of the cutter blades (Figure E). Wipe excess oil off blades with a soft dry cloth. Spray lubricants contain insufficient oil for good lubrication, but are an excellent trimmer coolant. Always replace broken or nicked blades to prevent injury. You can clean the excess hair from your blades by using a small brush or worn out tooth brush. To clean the blades we suggest to immerse the blades only into a shallow pan of Andis Clipper Oil, while the trimmer is running. Any excess hair and dirt that has accumulated between the blades should come out. After cleaning, turn your trimmer off and dry blades with a dry cloth and start clipping again.
REPLACEMENT (REMOVAL) OF BLADE SET
NOTE: If you are familiar with replacing and adjusting Andis GO and GTO trimmer blades, please read the following blade replacement instructions.
