  • Page 2: Removing The Blades

    Do not attempt to sharpen the blades yourself - they need a special machine. A wide range of “snap-on” blades can be fitted to this clipper, including those made by Oster as well as the Wahl range and others similar “snap-on” type blades.
  • Page 3 With the blade seated on the tongue and held in place with the fingers of your other hand, press the upper portion of the blade towards the clipper body - it should “snap” shut. (This can be done with the motor running and will not effect the performance of the clipper - whilst normally quiet a safe operation for adults NOT children! just exercise care against possible personal injury).
  • Page 4: Routine Maintenance

    BEFORE carrying out any work on the clipper first disconnect from the mains power supply Oster A5 clippers have a track record especially in dog grooming circles of overheating. Those machines with the "on/off" switch located at the rear of the appliance appear to be especially troubled with overheating.
  • Page 5: Carbon Brushes

    Do NOT fill the cavity with grease. Replace the link and gear and add a small amount of grease to the teeth of the gear & linkage. Use only Oster Grease, which is specially formulated for double insulated clippers.
  • Page 6 (expensive!) Carbon brushes MUST be replaced as sets - not individually. Use ONLY Oster genuine Carbon Brushes Avoid substitutes IMPORTANT! When ORDERING BRUSHES specify Model Number of clipper and voltage rating.
