1.3 Dangers that can be caused by the device
1.3.1 Danger from electrical current
DANGER!
DANGER OF FATAL ELECTRIC SHOCK!
Fatal electric shocks can result from contact with electrically live
conductors or components!
 Always disconnect the charger power cord from the mains by
grasping the plug, not the cord.
 Before every use, check the clipper for externally visible dam-
age. If the clipper is damaged, do not use it.
 Only ever insert the charger's electrical plug into an undam-
aged socket.
 Never wrap the power cable around the clipper, and keep the
clipper away from hot surfaces and objects.
 Only permit repairs to the clipper to be made by authorised
dealers or the factory customer service department; this ap-
plies especially to the replacement of a damaged power cord.
 Before plugging the clipper in, compare the electrical connec-
tion data (voltage and frequency) on the nameplate with that
of your electric mains. These data must be identical so that no
damage occurs to the device. If in doubt, ask your specialised
electrical dealer.
 Do not under any circumstances open the housing of the clipper.
If voltage-bearing connectors are disturbed or the electrical
and mechanical construction is modied, there is risk of elec-
tric shock.
 Keep moisture away from the clippers. This can cause a short
circuit. If you suspect that moisture has penetrated the device,
do not switch it on again; instead take it to a repair shop.
 Never clip wet animals.
 Clean the clipper only when it is dry, using a brush or the en-
closed cleaning brush.
 Never submerge the clipper in water or other liquids.
 Always switch the clipper off before working on it. Pull the plug
from the socket to prevent the device from being switched on
inadvertently.

Instruction Manual / Xpert 2-Speed sheep clipper 5
 Never operate this appliance with the air openings blocked or
while on a soft surface, such as a bed or couch, where it is pos-
sible for the air openings to be blocked. Keep the air openings
free of lint, hair, and similar objects.
1.3.2 Animals
CAUTION!
DANGER OF INJURY BY ANIMALS!
The noise of the clipper can trouble animals. A kick, an attack or
the body weight of the animal can lead to injuries.
 Just persons being experienced in handling with animals are
allowed to clip the animals.
 Before beginning shearing, remove foreign objects from the
coat (wire, wood etc.).
 Secure the animal sufciently and calm it before starting work.
 Proceed with caution when working.
 Call in a second person if necessary.
1.3.3 Blades
CAUTION!
DANGER FROM MOVING COMPONENTS!
The moving clipping blade and its sharp edges can cause injuries.
 Proceed with caution when working.
 Avoid any contact with the moving clipping blades.
 Do not touch the area around the clipping blades whilst the ma-
chine is still plugged in to a power source, even if it is switched
off. Before working on the clipping blade/clipping head, always
disconnect the electrical power rst.
 Do not use damaged shearing blades with blunt or missing
teeth. Only work with sharp shearing blades sharpened by a
specialist workshop.
 The upper blade of the shearing head is only held by the ta-
pered pins of the chicken feet. If the shear-pressure adjustment
head is released too much, the upper blade can y off and
result in injuries.

6Instruction Manual / Xpert 2-Speed sheep clipper
CAUTION!
DANGER OF BURNS!
Insufcient oiling of the clipping head will cause it to become hot.
This may agitate the animals.
 When clipping, oil the clipping blades and clipping head through
the lubrication opening provided for this purpose at least every
15 minutes, so that the blades do not run dry.
 The shearing blades may become hot after prolonged use.
1.4 Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
CAUTION!
DANGER OF INJURY THROUGH INCORRECT OR MISSING PROTEC-
TIVE EQUIPMENT!
Personal protective equipment is required when working, in order
to minimise the possibility of endangering health.
 Always wear the protective equipment required for the current
task when performing work.
Antislip shoes. For protection against slipping on slippery un-
derground.
Protective goggles to protect eyes from ying parts.
Close-tting protective clothing with low resistance to tearing,
with tight sleeves and no protruding parts. This is primarily to
prevent injury if they become caught between moving parts of
the machine.
Do not wear rings, chains or other jewellery.
Wear work gloves to protect against injury.
The acoustic emission while operating the device is typically
72 dB(A). We recommend that you always wear ear protection
when working with the device.

6.6 Lubrication
Fig. 11
To ensure a well-clipped animal and to
increase the life of the clipper including
the shearing head, it is necessary to ap-
ply a thin coat of oil between the upper
blade and comb plate. All other moving
parts of the clipping head must also be
lubricated.
 Apply some drops of oil on to the
clipping blades and into the lubrica-
tion opening.
CAUTION!
POSSIBLE DAMAGE TO THE CLIPPER!
Insufcient oiling of the clipping head will lead to warming and will
shorten the life of the clippers and its blades.
 Oil the clipping blades adequately during the clipping session,
at least once every 15 minutes, so that they do not run dry.
 Only use the special oil supplied or a parafn oil conforming to
the ISO VG 15 specication.
NOTE!
 The provided oil is non-toxic and produces no irritation on con-
tact with the skin or the mucous membranes. This parafn oil
degrades to some 20% after 21 days (CEL-L-33-T-82).

Instruction Manual / Xpert 2-Speed sheep clipper 15
 Oil the blades prior to, during and after every use.
 Oil the blades no later than when the blades leave streaks or slow down.
 Apply several drops of oil on the front and on the sides of the clipping
blades (see Fig. 11).
 Wipe excess oil off with a soft, dry cloth.
 Lubrication sprays do not have sufcient oil for a good lubrication, but
serve for cooling the blades.
 Immediately replace damaged or notched blades in order to avoid inju-
ries.
6.7 Cleaning
CAUTION!
IMPROPER CLEANING.
RISK OF DAMAGING THE CLIPPER!
 Clean the clipper only with a dry cloth and with the brush sup-
