2. Setup and Installation
Follow these steps carefully to replace the blade set on your VGR hair trimmer.
- Power Off: Ensure your VGR hair trimmer is turned off and unplugged from any power source.
- Remove Old Blade: Locate the screws holding the existing blade set in place. Use a small screwdriver to carefully unscrew and remove the old blade assembly. Keep the screws in a safe place if they are to be reused, though new screws are provided with this set.
- Clean Trimmer Head: Use a small brush to remove any hair clippings or debris from the trimmer head area. This ensures proper seating of the new blade and prevents future issues.
- Position New Blade: Carefully align the new fixed blade onto the trimmer head. Ensure the moving blade is correctly seated within the fixed blade.
- Secure Blade: Insert the provided screws into the designated holes and tighten them gently. Do not overtighten, as this can damage the blade or trimmer. Ensure the blade is securely fastened and does not wobble.
- Test Functionality: Turn on the trimmer briefly to ensure the blade moves smoothly and quietly. If there is any unusual noise or movement, turn off the trimmer and re-check the installation.
3. Operating Instructions
Once the new blade set is installed, your VGR hair trimmer is ready for use. Operate your trimmer as per its original instruction manual. The new carbon steel blades are designed for precise and efficient cutting.
- Always ensure the trimmer is fully charged or connected to power before use.
- Use the appropriate comb attachments for desired hair length.
- Move the trimmer against the direction of hair growth for best results.
4. Maintenance
Proper maintenance will extend the life and performance of your carbon steel blade set.
Cleaning After Each Use:
- Brush Off Hair: Use the cleaning brush (usually provided with your trimmer) to remove all loose hairs from the blades.
- Rinse (if applicable): If your trimmer is waterproof and designed for wet cleaning, you may rinse the blades under running water. Ensure to dry them thoroughly immediately after rinsing to prevent rust. If not waterproof, do not rinse.
Regular Oiling:
- Apply 1-2 drops of clipper oil (not included) to the blades after every few uses or as needed.
- Turn on the trimmer for a few seconds to allow the oil to distribute evenly across the blades.
- Wipe off any excess oil with a soft cloth. Oiling reduces friction, prevents rust, and maintains cutting efficiency.
Storage:
- Store the trimmer with the blade set in a dry, cool place, away from direct sunlight and moisture.
- Keep the blade covered with its protective cap (if available) when not in use to prevent damage.
