FACTORY REPAIR SERVICE
When the blades of your Andis clipper/trimmer become
dull after repeated use, it is advised to purchase a new
set of blades available through your Andis Supplier or
through an Andis Authorized Repair Station listed in this
manual. If you wish your clipper/trimmer to be serviced
as well, it should be carefully packed and mailed either
Parcel Post Insured, or U.P.S. to any of the Service
Centers listed in manual.
To use a blade attachment, slip the cutter blade teeth
into blade attachment.
Snap blade attachment down, they snap on and off
easily. These attachments guide hair into the clipper
blades and give you precise control of hair lengths.
The length of trim is indicated on the blade attachment:
1/16", 1/8", 1/4", and 3/8".
Attaching The Clipper Combs
(Some models do not have attachment combs)
The clipper comb blade attachments mount easily.
Just snap them on. Snap them off. Combs help guide
hair to cutting blades and give you precise control of
hair lengths. Each comb allows a different length of cut
which is indicated on the combs: 1/16", 1/8", 1/4",
and 3/8".
You can always set blades for a coarser cut by
attaching any of the four snap-on blade attachments.
Use the following chart to find the approximate lengths of
cut. Different blade angles in relation to the skin,
thickness and texture of the hair will vary the cutting
length.

The Preliminaries
1. To make cutting smoother and easier, always start
with a clean head of hair. Wash the hair with your
favorite shampoo. Rinse. Repeat. We also
recommend using a hair conditioner to untangle
snarls and leave hair soft and easy to manage.
2. When drying the hair, just use a towel so as not to dry
it too thoroughly. Leaving it damp makes the hair
easier to work with.
