Your Wahl clipper blades were oiled and aligned before leaving our factory. Blades may need
to be realigned if they have been bumped or removed for cleaning. To determine if realignment
is necessary, compare your clipper blades with this sketch.
1. If your clipper has a taper lever, position the lever in the close cut position.
2. End of top blade teeth should be approximately 1/32-inch (.64 mm) back from bottom blade.
3. Extreme left-hand tooth of top blade must be covering or to the left of the first small tooth
of bottom blade.
4. Extreme right-hand tooth of top blade must be touching the big tooth on the bottom blade.
If blade alignment is incorrect, add a few drops of Wahl Clipper Oil to the blades, turn clipper
“ON” for a few moments, turn “OFF” and unplug. Loosen screws slightly and adjust. Tighten
screws after blades are aligned. Other than blades, this clipper has no user-serviceable parts.
1. Comb hair and
remove tangles. Attach
the largest guide comb
to the clipper. Make sure
the taper lever is in the
up position.
2. Start at hairline on
side of head and cut
up to middle of head.
Note: If cut hair is
too long repeat with
next smaller guide
comb.
3. Continue around
head repeating step 2.
4. You are now ready to
cut the middle portion of
the hair.
5. Select the proper guide
comb. Use the comb with

If you used a #6 comb in
step 3, select comb #7.
6. Continue cutting

head as in steps 2 and 3.
7. For cutting top of
head, use the comb with
the next highest number
than in step 6.
Start at front bang area.
8. Cut across top of
head.
9. Comb hair on entire
head to assess if further
cutting is necessary.
10. Blend out any cut
lines. Lines may form
where you change comb
sizes. Use the same
comb used in step 3
with taper lever in down
position.
12. Using the comb used in
step 8 repeat blending the
top outline as in step 10.
