• How often should I oil my Wahl Professional clipper blades?

  You should oil your clipper blades before every use and after cleaning. Place a few drops of Wahl Clipper Oil on the teeth and the back side of the blade to ensure smooth operation and prevent rust.

• How do I know when my Wahl cordless clipper is fully charged?

  For most models like the Cordless Senior, the charging indicator will flash when the battery is almost full and may turn off or stay solid when fully charged. A full charge typically takes 3 to 5 hours.

• Can I replace the blades on my Wahl clipper?

  Yes, clipper blades can be replaced. If your blades are dull or damaged, you can purchase specific replacement blades (e.g., standard, fade, or stagger-tooth) compatible with your model.

• Why are my clippers making a loud noise?

  If your clipper is loud, you may need to adjust the power screw on the side. Turn the screw counterclockwise until the noise subsides to a normal hum. Also, ensure the blades are clean, oiled, and properly aligned.

• What is the difference between a clipper and a trimmer?

  Clippers are designed for bulk hair cutting and handling larger areas of hair. Trimmers have finer teeth and are intended for edging, outlining, dry shaving, and detailed work around the ears and neck.
