Cleaning The Air Filter - Heiniger C12 Instruction Manual

4.4 Cleaning the Air Filter

The air filter element is found on the underside of the motor section of the machine. The air
filter element can be removed from the machine for cleaning. Regularly cleaning the element
with a dry brush is essential. When cleaning the air filter, take care that no foreign bodies get
into the machine.

The machine must never be operated without the air filter element!
4.5 Changing the Clipper/Shear Head (Option)
To change the head from "Sheep" to "Cattle" or vice-versa, loosen both head screws. Remove
one head and fit the other (Grease cog wheel, Illustration 1, Item 13, if necessary). Re-tighten
both screws.

4.6 Storing the Clipping Machine
Only store the clipping machine in a dry place and in the case supplied. Do not switch on the
machine if you suspect any liquid has got into it. There is then a risk of an electric shock or
short circuit. Hand the clipping machine into a service centre.
Make it a habit to store the machine between use, store it well-cleaned, oiled and with tension
slackened off, in its storage case, in a clean, dry place, out of the reach of children.
