Clipper Care Form by PetStore.Direct

PetStore.Direct Clipper Care Form Following proper care instructions from the clipper manual and aerosol labels are essential to avoid equipment failures or health risks.

• Always oil blades before, during, and after grooming to ensure proper lubrication and smooth operation.
• Use canned air in an upright position to remove hair from blade springs or between blade halves when the clipper is OFF.
• Use a brush and blade wash to clean blade plaque stuck between blade teeth to remove bacteria and viruses.
• Raise the latch to put on or remove a blade to prevent damage to the latch or blade sockets.
• Regularly check and tighten hinge screws, especially if you frequently use combs.
• Clean hair buildup from the hinge lever and blade drive to ensure blades lock properly.
• Always read labels and manuals to ensure safe and correct practices.
• Do not use coolants, WD-40, spray disinfectants, or any aerosol products on a blade while the clipper is running. These products often contain ethyl alcohol, butane, or propane gas, which can damage clippers and fail to kill bacteria effectively.
• High-velocity air can push hair or grease into the motor, potentially burning it out.
• Never clean blades running on clippers in any liquid, as it can damage the motor and fail to clean blade plaque effectively.
• Moisture can damage clipper components and compromise their performance.
• Coolants lack proper lubrication and can damage both blades and clippers.
