6. Maintenance
6.1 Cleaning the Blades
After each use, turn off the clipper and remove any attached guide comb. Use the provided cleaning brush to remove loose hairs from the blades. For a more thorough cleaning, the blades can be carefully detached (refer to specific blade removal instructions if provided in a separate guide) and rinsed under running water, ensuring the clipper body remains dry. Allow blades to air dry completely before reattaching.
6.2 Lubricating the Blades
After cleaning and drying, apply 1-2 drops of the lubricating oil to the blades. Turn on the clipper for a few seconds to distribute the oil evenly. This helps maintain blade sharpness and smooth operation.
6.3 Storage
Store the clipper and its accessories in a dry, cool place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Use the protection cap to cover the blades when not in use.
7. Charging
The VGR 889C clipper features a 2500mAh lithium battery, providing up to 250 minutes of cordless operation on a full charge. A full charge typically takes 3 hours.
7.1 Charging Methods
