Setup and Installation

The Andis Ultraedge Trimmer Blade Model 64160 is compatible with specific clipper models. Ensure your clipper is unplugged and turned off before attempting blade installation or removal.

Compatible Clipper Models:

  • Andis Clippers: AG, BG, BGR, MBG series
  • Oster Clippers: A5, 76, 10, 111 series

Blade Installation Steps:

  1. Remove Old Blade: Carefully unscrew the two screws holding the existing blade onto the clipper head. Set aside the old blade and screws.
  2. Clean Clipper Head: Use a small brush to remove any hair or debris from the clipper head and blade drive.
  3. Position New Blade: Align the new Andis Ultraedge Trimmer Blade Model 64160 onto the clipper head, ensuring the blade drive engages correctly with the blade's mechanism.
  4. Secure Blade: Insert and tighten the two screws to secure the blade. Do not overtighten, as this can damage the blade or clipper. Ensure the blade is firmly attached and does not wobble.
  5. Lubricate: Apply a few drops of clipper oil to the teeth of the blade before first use.

Operating Instructions

The Andis Ultraedge Trimmer Blade Model 64160 is designed for ultra-close cutting and outlining. Its cut length is approximately 1/150 inch (0.1mm).

General Usage:

  • Preparation: Ensure the hair is clean and dry before cutting. For best results, use on hair that has been pre-cut to a shorter length with a standard clipper blade.
  • Technique: Hold the clipper firmly. For outlining, use the edge of the blade to create sharp lines. For close cutting, glide the blade smoothly against the skin, maintaining light and even pressure.
  • Skin Safety: Exercise caution around sensitive areas, creases, or folds in the skin. Gently pull the skin taut to create a flat surface for cutting and to prevent nicks or irritation.
  • Avoid Overheating: If the blade becomes hot during extended use, turn off the clipper, allow the blade to cool, and apply clipper oil.

Maintenance and Care

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your Andis Ultraedge Trimmer Blade.

Cleaning:

  1. After Each Use: Brush off any loose hair from the blade teeth using a cleaning brush.
  2. Deep Cleaning: For thorough cleaning, detach the blade from the clipper. Use a blade wash solution or a mild disinfectant spray. Ensure the blade is completely dry before reattaching or storing.

Oiling:

  • Regular Oiling: Apply 2-3 drops of clipper oil to the front and sides of the blade teeth before and after each use. This lubricates the blades, reduces friction, and prevents rust.
  • Distribution: Turn on the clipper for a few seconds to allow the oil to distribute evenly across the blade surfaces.

Storage:

  • Store the blade in a clean, dry place, preferably in its original packaging or a protective case, to prevent damage and contamination.
