SETTING FOR HORSE AND CATTLE CLIPPING
PREPARING THE ANIMAL
The clipper cannot be expected to cut properly if the animal is wet and dirty.
THE ANIMAL MUST BE CLEAN AND DRY.
Ideally, shampoo and rinse the coat a few days before clipping. The building floor should
also be clean and dry.
Clip horses before the coat grows thick and clip frequently to maintain an even length. If
the legs are clipped use standard blades, whereas the body may be clipped with standard
or fine blades.
Cattle require coarse toothed blades.
Stretch the skin flat with the hand and as far as possible cut against the direction the coat
grows. Glide over the skin with the blade.
Stop clipping at intervals to brush off the coat and oil the blades.
TENSIONING THE CLIPPER BLADES (Fig. 1)
1. Wipe the head and blades (including between the teeth) absolutely clean.
2. Fit the blades on the clipper head and screw the tension nut down tight.
3. Turn the tension nut back 1½ turns. This is the correct setting. The tension nut
marker line (A) will ensure accuracy.
4. Oil the blades and head, switch the clipper on and run briefly.
5. Switch off and wipe off any excess oil.
LUBRICATION (Fig. 1)
Oil the moving parts before starting the motor. It is necessary to point the head up to
allow oil to penetrate between cutter points, and sideways for effective lubrication of the
blade rear surfaces.
1. Oil between cutter points
2. Oil clipper head front pads
3. Oil cutter blade guide channel
4. Oil cutter blade heel
5. Oil crank shaft and roller
Unlike other clippers, this model does not slow down appreciably when lubrication is re-
quired. Therefore, regular oiling of the blades is essential to keep them cool. If the blades
get hot you are not oiling often enough or in the right places.
OIL EVERY 10 MINUTES RUNNING – Wipe off excess oil.
WARNING:- The use of spray lubricants is not recommended. Use Lister R15 oil, which is
specially formulated for clipping.

CARE OF BLADES
Blades should be kept together as MATCHED SETS.
The teeth could break if the blades are knocked. The steel blades, specially hardened for
good cutting qualities, are more brittle than unhardened teeth.
BLADE PROTECTION
WIPE BLADES ABSOLUTELY CLEAN. This is essential if the clipper is to work properly.
The blades are ground and then lapped to a very fine precision finish.
CLIPPING WITH NEW BLADES
New or reground blades must be cleaned, then tensioned correctly and oiled before use.
If the new blades fail to cut when first used, stop work immediately. DO NOT INCREASE
THE TENSION - THIS CAN ONLY BE HARMFUL. Remove and clean the blades, as even
a small amount of dirt or a single hair may be the cause of the trouble. Brush between the
teeth and wipe the blades and head clean. Fit the blades back on to the clipper, then set
the tension correctly and oil.
Should the clipper fail to cut again, repeat the cleaning procedure.
USE LISTER R15 OIL OR VERY LIGTH MACHINE OIL.
FAILURE TO CUT
IF THE BLADES FAIL TO CUT – DO NOT INCREASE THE TENSION.
EXCESSIVE TENSION WILL ONLY CAUSE OVERHEATING AND WILL BLUNT THE
BLADES.
THE CLIPPER WILL NOT CUT IF HAIR OR DIRT GETS BETWEEN THE BLADES
Remove the blades from the clipper. Wipe the clipper head clean to prevent stray hairs
getting between the blades. Brush between the blade teeth and wipe the blades clean. Fit
the blades back on the clipper. Finally set the tension correctly and oil.
THE SLIGHTEST BRUISE ON THE FACE OF EITHER BLADE IS SUFFICIENT TO STOP
THEM CUTTING ALTOGETHER.
BLADES SHOULD BE KEPT TOGETHER AS MATCHED SETS.
WHEN THE BLADES HAVE LOST THEIR CUTTING EDGE RETURN THEM TO A
QUALIFIED FIRM FOR REGRINDING.

MAINTENANCE (Figs. 2 & 3)
It is particularly important to keep plug and cable clean and in good order at all times. The
motor and drive gears can be expected to give years of trouble free use if maintained and
serviced regularly. The following should be carried out at the end of each season, or more
regularly if used extensively.
GEARS (Fig. 2)
Every 200 hours running remove the clipper head (1). Wipe the clipper head and gear-
wheel (2) to remove hair and used grease. Coat the gearwheel with clean grease (Lister R2
or Shell Alvania R2 or equivalent). When the clipper head is removed, check the gear-
wheel for wear and broken teeth.
FILTERS (Fig. 3)
The motor air filter shown in Fig. 3 should be frequently removed and meticulously
cleaned (brush supplied) to ensure efficient running of the motor. To clear the gauzes, a
high-pressure air-line is ideal – otherwise wash in detergent solution and dry carefully. If
this maintenance is ignored, overheating of the motor could occur with possible irrevers-
ible damage to the motor, or inefficient clipping at the very least. DO NOT RUN MOTOR
WITH FILTER REMOVED.
WARNING: All maintenance should be carried out with the unit switched off and re-
moved from the mains supply.
RESET BUTTON (Fig. 3)
The clipper is fitted with an overload protection switch, which will trip if the clipper is
overloaded. Should this occur, the unit should be thoroughly checked before fully depress-
ing the button to reset. The button is situated at the backend of the motor body (B).
