(fig. 15, 16, 17).
NOTE!
Only work with sharp blades, replace blunt or defective blades without teeth. The cor-
rect resharpening of blades is only to do by special machines or by a specialist. In that
case, contact your service centre.
6.2.4 Lubrication
To receive good clipping results and to increase the durability of the clipper and the
clipperhead, it is necessary to apply a thin oil coat between top and bottom blade
(fig. 22).
ATTENTION!
Unsufficientlubricationoftheclipperheadcausesheatingandareduceddurabilityof
clipper and blades, as well as a reduction of the battery runtime. Therefore:
• Lubricatethebladessufficientlyduringtheclipping(atleastevery15minutes),so
that they do not drain (fig. 22).
• Onlyusethelubricantsprescribedbythemanufacturer.
fig. 21
NOTE!
Only use our special oil or a
paraffin oil meeting the ISO VG
15 specification.
The provided oil is non-toxic and
produces no irritation on contact
with the skin or the mucous
membranes. This paraffin oil
degrades to some 20% after 21
days (CEL-L-33-T-82).
Thebladesmustbeoiledbefore,duringandaftereveryuse.Whenthebladesofthe
clipper are leaving stripes or are running with reduced speed, this is a signal that oil
is required. Place a few drops of oil ahead and laterally on the clipper blades (see
arrowsinfig.22).Wipeofftheexcessiveoilwithasmooth,drycloth.Lubrication
sprays do not have sufficient oil for a good lubrication, but serve for cooling the
blades. Immediately change damaged or crenated blades to avoid injuries.
