Operation

WARNING!
Incorrect operation may cause damage on persons or objects. Therefore:

  • Do all the steps of operation according to the indications in this instruction manual.

Initial start-up
Fitting the clipper head

  1. If the blade hinge (2) is accidentally closed, lift the latter up using a screwdriver (1) while simultaneously pressing the blade interlock.
  2. Fit the clipper head (1) on the open blade hinge (2).
  3. Fold the clipper head (2) by applying light pressure on to the clipper (1) when the device is switched on.
  4. Make sure, that the clipper head (1) is engaged firmly.

NOTE!
For proper operation make sure that the clipper head (1) is engaged correctly.

Activities during operation
Clipping

  1. Fix and calm the animal sufficiently before clipping.
  2. Switch on the clipper already in the field of vision of the animal.
  3. Approach to the animal from ahead.
  4. During clipping, look at the behaviour of the animal.

Changing the clipper head

  1. Move the switch to position “0” (Fig. 4).

  2. Push the interlock clipperhead.

  3. Fold the clipper head forwards when the interlock clipper head is pressed.

  4. Take off the clipper head.

  5. Clean the opened hinge by the help of the provided brush.

  6. Fit the favored clipper head to the blade hinge and fold it on to the switched-on clipper by light pressure. (fig. 8, 9, 10).

NOTE!
Only work with sharp clipping blades, replace blunt or defective blades with- out teeth. The correct rehappening of clipping blades is only to be done by special machines or by a specialist. In that case, contact your service centre.

Lubrication
To receive good clipping results and to increase the durability of the clipper and the clipperhead, it is necessary to apply a thin oil coat between top and bottom blade (Fig. 13).

CAUTION!
Inadequate lubrication of the clipper head causes heating and a reduced durability of clipper and blades, as well as a reduction of the battery runtime. Therefore:

  • Lubricate the blades sufficiently during the clipping (at least every 15 minutes), so that they do not drain (Fig. 13).
  • Only use the lubricants prescribed by the manufacturer.

NOTE!
Only use our special oil or a paraffin oil meeting the ISO VG 15 specification.
The provided oil is non-toxic and produces no irritation on contact with the skin or the mucous membranes. This paraffin oil degrades to some 20% after 21 days (CEL-L-33-T-82). ****The blades must be oiled before, during and after every use. When the blades of the clipper are leaving stripes or are running with reduced speed, this is a signal that oil is required. Place a few drops of oil ahead and laterally on the clipper blades (see arrows in Fig. 13). Wipe off the excessive oil with a smooth, dry cloth. Lubrication sprays do not have sufficient oil for a good lubrication, but serve for cooling the clipping blades. Immediately change damaged or cremated blades to avoid injuries.

CAUTION!
Remove all the leaking, used up or excessive grease from all the lubrication points, and it is to be disposed in accordance with the local regulations.

Cleaning
To receive good clipping results and to increase the durability of the clipper and the clipperhead, it is necessary to apply a thin oil coat between top and bottom blade (6.2.3 Lubrication).

Clipper head and hinge
Clean clipperheads und hinge between the different clippings.

  • The here described tasks for troubleshooting can be done mostly by the operator.
  • Some tasks only may be done by especially trained personal or by an authorised service centre. These tasks are marked with (S).
