OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Please read the following instructions before using your new Andis clipper. Give it the care that a fine precision built instrument deserves and it will give you years of service. Before starting clipper, remove blade guard (some models may not have a blade guard). Plug cord into electrical outlet, operate at 120 volt, 60 cycle AC electrical current or as noted on the unit. To start clipper, move switch button to ON position. To stop clipper, move switch button back to original position. After using your clipper, rewrap cord and store in a safe place.

USING ATTACHMENT Combs

(Some models do not have combs and sizes will vary by kit)

You can set the blades for a coarser cut by attaching any of the snap-on attachment combs made for your clipper. The attachment combs mount easily– they snap on and off (Figures D & E). These attachment combs guide hair into the clipper blades and give you precise control of hair lengths. The length of trim is indicated on the comb: 1/16", 1/8", 1/4", 3/8", 1/2", 3/4” & 1".

Use the chart to find the approximate lengths of cut. Different blade angles in relation to the skin, thickness and texture of the hair will vary the cutting length.

POWER ADJUSTMENT

Your Andis clipper has been adjusted to line voltage at the factory. However, because of voltage variations it may be necessary to adjust the power setting for your area. If the power adjustment is off, you will usually notice a “clatter”, when the clipper is on or introduced into the hair. (It is normal for your clipper to “clatter” for an instant when initially turned on).

TO ADJUST YOUR CLIPPER

1.Oil the blades (Figure L).

2.The power screw is located in the lower part of the housing opposite the switch (Figure F).

3.Turn your clipper ON.

4.Use a screwdriver to turn the power screw clockwise until the clipper clatters continuously. Then turn the screw counterclockwise­ carefully until the clatter ceases.

5.Your clipper is now adjusted to its optimum power setting.
