- Place the clippers onto the charging base. The LCD display will indicate charging status.
- A full charge typically takes approximately 3 hours and provides up to 3 hours of continuous use.
5.2 Attaching/Detaching Blades
- Ensure the clippers are turned off.
- To detach a blade: Push the blade firmly upwards with your thumb until it clicks off.
- To attach a blade: Align the blade with the slot on the clipper head and push down until it clicks securely into place. Ensure it is flush with the clipper body.
5.3 Attaching Guide Combs
- Ensure the clippers are turned off and a blade is securely attached.
- Select the desired guide comb (3mm, 6mm, 9mm, or 12mm).
- Slide the guide comb onto the blade until it locks into position. Ensure it is firmly attached.
- To remove, gently pull the comb upwards from the blade.
6. Operating Instructions
6.1 Preparing Your Pet
- Brush your pet's fur thoroughly to remove any tangles or mats before clipping. This prevents pulling and ensures a smoother cut.
- Ensure your pet is calm and comfortable. Introduce the clippers slowly, allowing them to get used to the sound and vibration.
6.2 Using the Clippers
- Turn on the clippers by pressing the power button. The LCD display will light up.
- Adjust the speed setting (3 levels available) by pressing the power button repeatedly. Start with a lower speed for sensitive areas or nervous pets, and increase as needed for thicker hair.
- Adjust the cutting length directly on the blade (0.8mm, 1.2mm, 1.4mm, 1.7mm, 2mm) using the lever on the side of the clipper, or attach a guide comb for longer cuts.
- Hold the clippers firmly and move them against the direction of hair growth for an even cut. Use smooth, steady strokes.
- For body grooming, use the wide blade and appropriate guide comb.
- For delicate areas like paws, face, ears, and around the rump, switch to the narrow blade and use caution.
