Cleaning & maintenance, Replacing cutters and screens, Trimmer care – Remington MS2-150 User Manual
Page 5: Cleaning your shaver, Screens and cutters
Depending on your shaving technique and
habits, the screens will usually last 6
months; the cutters, 12 months. If you are
replacing the cutters, it’s a good idea to
replace the screens at the same time.
Here are some signs that your foils and
cutters need replacing:
Irritation: As screens get worn, you may
notice that your skin feels more sensitive
after a shave, particularly when you apply
aftershave.
Pulling: As cutters wear, your shave may
not feel as close and you may feel your
shaver is pulling at your whiskers.
Wear-through: You may notice that the
cutters have worn through the screens.
The replacement for this shaver is model
SP-67 (screens) and SP-69 (screens and
cutters).

Lubricating
1. Every six months apply a drop of light
machine oil one-third and two-thirds of
the way along the blade.
2. Using your fingertip, spread the oil along
the teeth.
3. Run the trimmer for a few seconds to
distribute oil.
Replacing Cutters and
Screens
To prevent inadvertent damage to the cut-
ters and screens, do not attempt to remove
them from the head assembly unless you
are replacing them. Removal instructions
are included with the cutter and screen
replacement packages.
To replace a cutter assembly that is
removed unintentionally:
1. Hold the assembly in the middle of the
"T".
2. Gently slide the plastic portion of the
cutter assembly over the top of the
oscillator tip.
3. Do not push downward on the ends of
the cutters, as you may bend the cutter,
reducing its ability to operate smoothly.
4. Do not remove cutters from the plastic
pieces they are attached to, as you may
damage the assembly.
When is it time to replace
your screens and cutters?
Because they are subject to
daily use, the cutters and
screens of your shaver will
wear and eventually require replacement to
maintain a close, comfortable shave. It is
very important to replace your screens and
cutters when necessary to ensure a close,
comfortable shave without irritation.
1. Turn the shaver off.
2. Remove the head assembly by squeezing
on both release buttons and pulling up from
the body of the shaver.
3. Use the cleaning brush to
sweep out the cutters and
trimmer. DO NOT USE
THE CLEANING BRUSH
ON THE SCREENS.
Damage may occur to the
holes in the screens.
4. Replace head assembly. Remington
