4.2 Shear blade assembly

The set of shearing blades consists of a lower blade (fig. 4, item 2) and an upper blade (fig. 4, item 1) When assembling the shearing blades
make sure that the correct surfaces come into contact with each other. The blades are assembled as follows: Loosen the shearing pressure
adjusting screw (fig. 5), remove it with the compression spring and place the shearing machine on a hard surface so that the blade fastening
screw comes to rest at the top. Now remove the two old blades. Make sure that the two new blades are clean. Ensure in particular that the
ground surfaces are free from dirt, otherwise a satisfactory shearing result cannot be achieved even with newly ground shearing blades. Apply
one or two drops of oil (fig. 6) to the guide surfaces and place the upper blade around the sliding block and guide bolt. Then apply a few more
drops of oil to the ground surfaces (fig. 6) of the shearing blade. Now place the lower blade on the upper blade so that the two drilled holes are
guided through the guide pins (fig. 7). It is now important that the blades come to lie one upon the other so that the ground surface of the
lower blade projects approx. 1.5 - 2.0 mm above the tips of the upper blade (fig. 8). As soon as you have adjusted the shearing blades, guide
the blade fastening screw through the two blades, turn the shearing machine around and assemble the compression spring and the shearing
pressure adjusting screw. Now set the adjusting screw as in point 3.2.
4.3 Resharpening the blades
Resharpening shear blades correctly is only possible with special machines and by the specialised trade. Only use sharp shear blades. Defective
blades with broken off teeth or blunt blades must be replaced.
4.4 Cleaning the air filter
The air tube is at the back of the shearing machine drive. Press the air tube (fig. 8) out of the drive and remove it (fig. 9). Carefully blow out the
filter fabric in the air tube, then reassemble (fig. 9). Regular cleaning of the air tube is essential to ensure adequate cooling of the motor. Make
sure that no foreign bodies penetrate the machine during cleaning of the air tube. The shearing machine must never be operated without an air
tube.

4.5 Storing the clipper

Between clippings always keep the well-cleaned and lubricated clipper in the supplied case in a dry location, which is not accessible to children.
Do not switch the machine on, if you suspect that liquids could have entered. There is danger of an electric shock or short-circuit. Have the
machine serviced!

4.6 Cleaning the clipper head

After a few days of shearing time the shearing head must be cleaned. To do this remove the cutting plates (figs. 2-5). Loosen the Philips screw
(Philips screwdriver not supplied). Remove retaining wire (fig. 10, parts list item 21) and pull shearing head from drive. Now clean the inside of
the shearing head and the other component parts thoroughly with a brush. Grease the gearwheels on the driven shaft (fig. 10, spare parts list
item 8) and on the drive (fig. 10, spare parts list, item 9) on at least 2 opposing points with ball bearing grease (max. viscosity 80 mm2/s to
DIN 51562 T1). After carefully assembly the shearing head must be oiled as in point 3.3.
