Aligning the Clipper Blades
The blades of each cutter are aligned before leaving the factory. Collision
or impact during transportation may dislocate the blades, or the blades
may become unaligned or in need of maintenance after a long period
of use. Follow the instructions below to conrm the cutter blades are
correctly aligned.
1. Position the taper lever to the closest cut position and loosen the
blade screws.
2. The movable cutter should be approximately 0.45-0.88mm back from
the xed cutter.
3. The leftmost tooth blade of the xed cutter must cover the rst small
tooth blade of the movable cutter.
4. The rightmost tooth blade of the xed cutter must be touching the
big tooth blade of the movable cutter.
Note: If blade alignment is incorrect, add a few drops of clipper oil to the
blades, turn the clippers “ON” for a few moments, then turn “OFF” and unplug.
Loosen the screws slightly and adjust. Tighten the screws after the blades
have been aligned. Other than blades, these clippers have no user-serviceable
parts.
Oil
The clipper blades should be oiled every few haircuts. Simply place a
few drops of clipper oil on the teeth of the blades. Do not use hair oil,
grease or any oil mixed with kerosene or any solvent. Please use included
clipper oil or purchase natural clipper oil that doesn’t contain solvents.
Power Screw
Your clippers have a power screw to adjust voltage.
This screw is set to a position for a 120V voltage rating
before leaving the factory. However, if the voltage in
your home or current location is lower, you may need
to readjust this screw. To adjust for the dierence
in voltage power, turn the clippers on and use a
screwdriver to turn the power screw in a clockwise
direction until you hear a noise. Next, slowly turn the
power screw in a counterclockwise direction and stop
just as the noise stops. This will set to clippers to the
maximum power setting available in your home or
current location.
Caring for the Power Cord
The power cord should not be used to pull or support the clippers. Since
freedom of movement needs to be maintained, care should be used
to keep the cord untwisted and unobstructed. When stored, the cord
should be coiled and the haircut kit placed in its original box, away from
children.
For clippers with a polarized plug: The clippers have a polarized
plug (one prong is wider than the other) to reduce the risk of electric
shock. This plug ts into polarized outlets in only one orientation. In
the event the plug does not t fully in the outlet, reverse the plug’s
orientation. Do not modify the plug in any way.
