CARE OF AND SERVICING OF ANDIS TRIMMER BLADES
Blades should be oiled before, during, and after each use. If your trimmer
blades leave streaks or slows down, it’s a sure sign blades need oil. The
trimmer should be held in the position shown in Figure F to prevent oil from
getting into motor. Place a few drops of Andis Clipper Oil on the front and
side of the cutter blades (Figure G). Wipe excess oil off blades with a soft
dry cloth. Spray lubricants contain insufficient oil for good lubrication, but
are an excellent trimmer coolant. Always replace broken or nicked blades to
prevent injury. You can clean the excess hair from your blades by using a
small brush or worn out tooth brush. To clean the blades we suggest to
immerse the blades only into a shallow pan of Andis Clipper Oil, while the
trimmer is running. Any excess hair and dirt that has accumulated between
the blades should come out. After cleaning, turn your trimmer off and dry
blades with a dry cloth and start clipping again.
REPLACEMENT (REMOVAL) OF BLADE SET
Your trimmer has a preset tension assembly on the blade set. To remove
blade set from your trimmer, remove from charger base. Turn the trimmer
upside down so teeth of blades are facing down. You may wish to set the
trimmer on a flat surface while performing these operations. Using a phillips
type screwdriver, unscrew the two blade screws (Figure H). Remove blade
set from trimmer. Install new blade set, making sure the blade yoke cradles
the armature pin on trimmer (Figure I). There is no need to adjust blade
tension before use, as tension has been preset at the factory. Align screw
holes of blade set to screw inserts on trimmer housing. Replace the screws.
Before tightening down blade screws, check alignment of blade set to
housing, making sure that they are parallel. Tighten down screws.
USE GUIDELINES FOR LITHIUM-ION BATTERIES
1. The lithium-ion battery included with your trimmer does not develop a
“memory effect” like a nickel-metal hydride (NiMH), or nickel cadmium
(NiCd) battery. You can return the trimmer to the charger at any time for
a full charge, or even use the battery before a charge cycle is complete.
Like most rechargeable batteries, lithium-ion batteries perform best when
used frequently.
2. For maximum battery life, store the trimmer in a partially discharged
condition if the unit will be unused for several months. To discharge the
battery, run the trimmer until it automatically shuts off.
3. Avoid locating the trimmer near heat vents, radiators, or in direct
sunlight. Optimum charging will result where the temperature is stable.
Sudden increases in temperature can result in the battery receiving less
than a full charge.
4. Many factors influence lithium-ion battery life. A battery that has received
heavy use or is more than a year old may not give the same run-time
performance as a new battery pack.
5. New lithium-ion batteries, unused for a period of time, may not accept a
full charge. This is normal and does not indicate a problem with the
battery or charger. The battery will accept a full charge after several
cycles of trimmer use and recharging.
6. Disconnect the charger or the trimmer from the AC outlet if extended
periods of non-use are anticipated.
