TIPS FOR BEST RESULTS

CARE FOR YOUR GROOMER

Care for your product to ensure a long lasting performance. We recommend that you clean your groomer after each use.
AFTER EACH USE

• The easiest and most hygienic way to clean the groomer is by detaching the head from the groomer body and rinsing the head with warm water.
• The groomer body should not be rinsed.
• Place one or two drops of cutter oil or sewing machine oil on the blades.
•  Turn the clipper on to distribute the oil evenly, wipe off any excess oil.
