USING THE ATTACHMENTS:
Plastic combs for attachment to clippers and trimmer blades are included with some kits. This plastic comb serves
as a clipping guide so that the hair is not clipped short. The comb attachment is grooved to fit snugly over the
blades.
When attaching the comb to the clipper or trimmer, slide the comb down firmly as far as it will go. Make sure the
comb is seated securely against the lower blade. To disengage the comb, pull and slide the comb upward until it is
off the clipper or trimmer.
Replacement combs are not covered under warranty.
BLADES
To clean the blades, fill a flat dish with Oster™ Blade Wash
®
cleaning solution and immerse only the blade teeth. DO
NOT IMMERSE THE APPLIANCE. Turn «ON» (|) the appliance with the blades facing down. Do not hold the appliance
upright when cleaning blades with the appliance plugged in. Listen for a change in the hum of the motor. As the
build-up is removed, the clean blade runs faster and at a higher pitch. When the pitch stabilizes (between 30 to
60 seconds), turn «OFF» (O) the appliance and unplug. Remove from the cleaning solution and, while holding the
appliance with the blade end facing down, wipe the blades dry with a clean, dry cloth. Re-oil blades.
Always unplug the appliance when carrying out other cleaning and do not immerse the appliance body, charging
stand, adapter, power cord or plug in water or any other liquid.
CHARGING STATION
1. Disconnect the charging station from the power supply.
2. If necessary, remove hairs from both charging cavities.
3. If dirty, clean the contacts with a dry cloth.
CONTACTS
If required, clean the contacts of the trimmer and charging sand with a dry cloth.
Any maintenance beyond the cleaning and lubricating instructions in this manual should be performed by an
Oster™ Authorized Service Center.
The tasks described here for troubleshooting can be done mostly by the operator.
Some tasks only may be done by specially trained personnel or by an Oster
TM
authorized service center. These tasks
are marked with (*).
CLEANING
When using or cleaning this appliance, do not use any aerosol sprays or blade washes, especially
those containing methylene chloride, dimethyl benzyl ammonium chloride, or 1-1-1 trichloroethylene.
Damage caused by these chemicals will void your warranty. You may use Oster
TM
approved blade
washes, lubricants and disinfectant sprays that do not harm the product.
