Clipper care step number #3 is oiling. Andis clipper oil is the lifeblood of your clipper. It is amazing how just a few pennies of oil can be the difference between life and death for a clipper worth thousands of times more.
Every clipper, every trimmer, every client , every time is the saying.
We call it 5 point oiling... 5 drops of andis clipper oil on the blade. 1 drop at each inside rear corner of the moving blade and 3 drops don onto the running cutter blade teeth. Let the tool run for a few seconds to spread the oil between the blades. Blot up the excess oil and you are good to go.
Too much oil is just as bad as not enough. Not enough oil and the blade will run dry and drag and pull and dull and wear fast. Too much oil will attract dust, dirt and hair clippings... which makes gunk. Gunk will gunk up the blade.
Make this oiling a habit every time you pick up an electric cutting tool and you will get many more happy years and happy clients from your clippers and trimmers.
More in installment 4 tomorrow.
Thank you.
Happy clippering.
