Setup and Installation

Follow these steps to correctly install your new Wahl #1045 Blade Set onto your compatible Wahl clipper:

Adjustable Clippers: If your clipper has an adjustable taper lever, push the lever all the way up toward the lid.
Position Moving Blade: On all clippers, carefully position the small moving blade over the clipper's drive finger.
Set Stationary Blade: Place the large stationary blade on top of the small moving blade and partially tighten the blade screws. Do not fully tighten yet.
Align Blades: Move the stationary blade into alignment. Ensure that the ends of the moving blade teeth are approximately 0.75 mm back from the stationary blade, as illustrated in the diagram. This gap is crucial for proper cutting and to prevent skin irritation.
Tighten Screws: Once aligned, fully tighten the screws. Important: Never tap on the teeth to adjust the stationary blade. Blades are now correctly aligned.

Operating Instructions

Once the blade set is properly installed and aligned, your clipper is ready for use. This blade set provides a standard cutting length of 0.8mm.

Ensure your clipper is clean and free of debris before each use.
For detailed operating instructions specific to your clipper model, please refer to the original clipper instruction manual.
Always use the clipper on clean, dry hair for best results.

Maintenance

Proper maintenance is essential for the longevity and performance of your Wahl blade set.

Cleaning: After each use, use a cleaning brush (not included) to remove all hair clippings from the blades.
Oiling: Apply 2-3 drops of the included Wahl blade oil to the teeth of the blades before and after each use. Turn the clipper on for a few seconds to allow the oil to distribute evenly. This lubrication reduces friction, prevents rust, and maintains cutting efficiency. Wipe off any excess oil with a soft cloth.
Storage: Store your clipper with the blade set attached in a clean, dry place.

Troubleshooting

If you experience issues with your blade set, consider the following:

Poor Cutting Performance: If the blades are pulling hair or not cutting cleanly, they may be dull or improperly aligned. Refer to the "Setup and Installation" section to re-align the blades. If dullness persists, the blades may need replacement.
Excessive Noise/Vibration: Ensure the blades are properly oiled. Lack of lubrication can cause increased friction and noise.
Blades Getting Hot: Insufficient oiling can cause blades to heat up quickly. Apply blade oil as directed in the "Maintenance" section.
