USER MAINTENANCE
The internal mechanism of your motor clipper has been permanently
lubricated by the factory. Other than the recommended maintenance
described in this manual, no other maintenance should be performed,
except by Andis Company, or an Andis Authorized Repair Service
Station.
CARE AND SERVICING OF YOUR ANDIS CLIPPER BLADES
Blades should be oiled before, during, and after each use. If your
clipper blades leave streaks or slow down, it’s a sure sign blades
need oil. Place a few drops of oil on the front and side of the
cutter blades (Diagram O). Wipe excess oil off blades with a soft,
dry cloth. Spray lubricants contain insufficient oil for good lubrica-
tion, but are an excellent clipper blade coolant. Always replace bro-
ken or nicked blades to prevent injury. You can clean the excess hair
from your blades by using a small brush or worn out toothbrush. To
clean the blades, we suggest to immerse the blades only into a shallow
pan of Andis Clipper Oil, while the clipper is running. Any excess hair
and dirt that has accumulated between the blades should come out.
After cleaning, turn your clipper off and dry blades with a clean dry
cloth and start clipping again. If upon cleaning your blades you find that
the blades will still not cut, there may be a few fine pieces of hair
trapped between the upper and lower blade. If this happens, you will
need to snap the blade off the clipper. Proceed to slide the upper blade to one side, without loosen-
ing the tension spring or moving the upper blade completely out from under the tension spring (See
Diagram P for position of blade). Wipe the surface between the blades clean with a dry cloth, then
place a drop of clipper oil where the upper and lower blades meet and also in the guide slot of the
tension spring (Diagram N). Now slide the upper blade to the opposite side of the lower blade and
repeat this process. After completing this procedure, slide the upper blade, centering it over the
lower blade. Handle or store your Andis Clipper with the blades down so excess oil will not run into
the clipper case.
