OILING BLADES
For best results, put one or two drops of Wahl Clipper Oil on
the blades only when necessary, or approximately once a
month. Motor bearings are permanently
lubricated—do not attempt to oil.
When oiling your trimmer, turn the trimmer
“ON - I,” hold the unit with the blades facing
DOWN and squeeze one or two drops of oil
onto the blades. Wipe off excess oil with soft cloth.
NOTICE—DO NOT OVER OIL!
Excessive oiling or application of liquids will cause damage if
allowed to seep back into motor.
BLADE CARE
Trimmer blades have precision-hardened, ground and lapped
cutting teeth. Blades should be handled carefully and never
bumped or used to cut dirty or abrasive material.
Should blades become damaged or dull, you may purchase a
new blade assembly from Wahl. (Have your model numbers off
the unit ready.)
CLEANING/STORAGE
Before storing your trimmer, use the cleaning brush to whisk
any loose hairs from the unit and the blades. Store unit in such
a manner so that blades are protected from damage.
When the trimmer is not in use, the trimmer guide/blade guard
attachment should be in place to protect the blades.

RECHARGING
1. This trimmer is conveniently designed for household use. It
should be allowed to charge overnight before first use.
2. Remove the trimmer, recharging transformer and accessories
from the packing material.
3. Connect the transformer to the trimmer. BE SURE TRIMMER IS
IN THE “OFF - 0” POSITION WHEN CHARGING.
4. Plug the recharging transformer into any convenient electrical
outlet at the correct voltage.
5. When trimmer is not in use, it may be connected to the trans-
former and plugged into an outlet to assure maximum power is
available when it is next used. This transformer is designed to
continuously charge the battery without overcharging.
6. For Battery operated Trimmres: Ni-Cad and Ni-MH battery life
may be extended with the following procedure: Once every month,
let the trimmer run until the motor stops. Move the switch to the
“OFF - 0” position and recharge fully overnight.
For Lithium Ion Trimmer: The battery will take approximately 60
minutes to charge. The Lithium Ion Trimmer also has quick
charge capability.
7. If you have a rechargeable cord/cordless trimmer, it can be
used with the cord so you can trim even if the charge is low. The
charging indicator light will glow when your trimmer is in the “OFF”
position and connected to its charger. The trimmer cannot be
overcharged, so you may charge it as often as desired. We
recommend that the battery be “worked” or discharged by
trimming without the cord and by not recharging after every use.
In certain areas that experience low line voltages, the red charging
indicator light on your trimmer may become dim as the battery
nears full charge. This dimming does not affect the performance of
your trimmer but is simply a result of variances in power line
voltages.
