Operating Instructions
Preparing Your Pet
- Before grooming, ensure your pet's coat is clean, dry, and free of tangles. Brush out any mats or knots with the steel comb provided.
- Introduce the clippers to your pet while they are off to allow them to get accustomed to the device. Turn them on briefly to let your pet hear the low noise.
Grooming Techniques
The FuzzyFix clippers are suitable for various hair types and breeds, including those with thick or heavy coats.

- For Heavy Matted Coats: For very thick or matted areas, it is recommended to first use the clippers without a guide comb to remove the bulk of the hair. Once the coat is thinned, you can then attach a guide comb for desired length.
- General Grooming: Always move the clippers in the direction of hair growth for a smooth, even cut.
- Using Guide Combs: The colored guide combs help achieve consistent hair lengths across different body parts. Refer to the image below for suggested comb usage for various areas.

Maintenance
Cleaning the Blades
Regular cleaning is essential for maintaining clipper performance and hygiene. Do not disassemble the blade beyond the steps below.
- Step 1: Remove Hair. After each use, turn off the clippers and use the provided cleaning brush to remove any loose hair from the blade and surrounding areas.
- Step 2: Rinse Blade. With the machine turned on, hold the cutter head under running water to rinse out trapped hair. Adjust the lever up and down to ensure thorough cleaning. Avoid submerging the entire clipper body.
- Step 3: Wipe Clean. Turn off the clippers and use a clean, dry cloth to wipe the blade and clipper body dry.
Oiling the Blades
Apply blade oil regularly to ensure smooth operation and prolong blade life. The LCD display will show an oil drip alert when oiling is recommended.
- After cleaning and drying the blades, apply 1-2 drops of the included blade oil evenly across the teeth of the blade.
- Turn on the clippers for a few seconds to allow the oil to distribute.
- Wipe off any excess oil with a clean cloth.
Troubleshooting
- Clipper not cutting effectively / Hair pulling:
- Ensure the blades are clean and free of hair buildup. Clean as per maintenance instructions.
- Apply blade oil. Dry blades can cause friction and pulling.
- Check if the battery is sufficiently charged. Recharge if necessary.
- For very thick or matted coats, consider pre-trimming with scissors or using the clippers without a guide comb first.
- Clipper not turning on:
- Ensure the battery is charged. Connect to the charger and check the LCD display.
- Excessive heat from blades:
- Ensure blades are clean and oiled. Friction from dry or dirty blades can cause heat.
- Take short breaks during long grooming sessions to allow the blades to cool.
