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

Setting up the charging station

• Observe all technical data according to the operating conditions (3 Technical Data).
• The installation surface must be even and must dispose of sufficient stability and payload.
• The location of installation must be protected against humidity and rain.
• Power outlets in the outer area must be equipped with a residual current circuit breaker (FI).
• The workplace must dispose of sufficient illumination and ventilation.
• The location of installation must be out of reach of children.

1. Place the charging station on a firm, even, dry, clean and free underground.

2. Plug the charging station in the power outlet.

3. If possible, wall mounting on the suspension guides (1) provided for this purpose on the back of the charging station (screw diameter 4.5 mm).
   

4. The charging station has electronics that constantly check its functions.
   A switchover may therefore last up to 3 seconds.

5. The permanent light of the green LED signalizes, that the plug is connected correctly to the power outlet and the charging station is ready for use.

6. If the battery is very depleted, the charging station wakes the battery.
   This may require up to 5 minutes. After that the normal charging process will start.

Charge battery

1. Test the contacts of the clipper (1) and the battery (2) for foreign particles and contamination.

2. Assure, that the switch lever of the clipper is in OFF-position (“0”) (fig. 4).
   

3. Insert the battery (2) in the clipper (3), until the battery interlock (1) is engaged on both sides.
   

4. Put the clipper with the inserted battery (1) or spare battery (2) from above without force into the provided charging cavity of the charging station.

5. Waiting for the battery charging time (3 specifications).

6. Battery is charging. During the charging time the control light is illuminating red (3). As soon as the battery has been charged to a min. 90%, the indicator lamp will change to green and the charging station switch to “trickle charging”.
   

7. Hold the charger firmly with one hand and pull the clipper (1) or the battery (2) out with the other.

NOTE!
If the shearer (1) and the reserve battery (2) are both on the charging station at the same time, the battery in the shearer (1) will be charged up first.
The reserve battery (2) will only charged up when the shearer is charged.

Fitting the clipperhead

1. If the blade hinge (2) is accidentally closed, lift the latter up using a screwdriver (1) while simultaneously pressing the blade lock.
   

2. Fit the clappered (1) on the open blade hinge (2).
   

3. Fold the clappered (2) by light pressure on to the clipper (1) which is switched on.
   

4. Make sure, that the clappered (1) is engaged firmly
   

NOTE!
For proper operation make sure that the clappered (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 battery

When the battery is unloaded, the clipper is turned off by a protective circuit.

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

2. Push the battery interlock (2) on both sides inward and pull the battery (1) out of the clipper.
   

3. Insert charged battery (1) into the shearer (2), until the battery lock is locked in on both sides.
   

Changing the clappered

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

2. Push the interlock clappered.
   

3. Fold the clappered ahead when the interlock clappered is pressed.

4. Take off the clappered.

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

6. Fit the favored clappered to the blade hinge and fold it on to the switched-on clipper by light pressure. (fig. 15, 16, 17).

NOTE!
Only work with sharp blades, replace blunt or defective blades without teeth.
The correct rehappening of blades is only to do 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 clappered, it is necessary to apply a thin oil coat between top and bottom blade (fig. 22).

CAUTION!
Unsufficient lubrication of the clappered 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. 22).
• 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. 22). 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 blades. Immediately change damaged or crenated 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 (6.2.4 Lubrication).

Clipperhead and hinge
Clean clipperheads und hinge between the different clippings.

Charging station

1. Disconnect the charging station from the power supply.
2. If necessary, take away hairs from both charging cavities.
3. If required, clean the contacts (1) and (2) with a dry cloth.

Contacts
Clean the contacts of the battery and the shearer with a dry cloth as necessary.

NOTE!
If not using daily, store shearer and charging station in the packaging supplied with them. When in use daily, we recommend to put clipper and reserve battery in the charging station.
