What if my trimmer fails to operate when switched “ON?”

Check the batteries to see if they are properly installed. Make sure the switch is in the “ON” position and check to be sure blades are free to move. If blades become clogged with debris, manually pushing the blades back and forth a few times while the unit is turned “OFF” may help free the blades and allow the trimmer to operate. Also, make sure blades are oiled per directions in this sheet. If it still does not operate, the batteries have probably exceeded their useful life. To maximize battery life, replace all batteries at the same time.

How do I install & replace the battery?

1. To remove the battery door cover: Slide the cover off by using your thumb to push the door away from the trimmer. If replacing batteries, remove existing batteries one at a time.
2. Insert one AA battery (for 9307A, 9966, 9962) or two AA batteries (for 5537N, 5614, 9336, 9906) as indicated.
3. Replace battery cover to its original position.
4. Move the switch upward to the “ON” position to use.
5. To maximize battery life, the trimmer should be shut “OFF” immediately after using.

Important: Be sure to insert the negative (-) end of each battery first, so that it depresses the spring of the battery compartment. Then slide the positive (+) end in position. Do not allow the negative terminal clips to bend and cut the casing of the batteries.

What type of batteries should I use?

Carbon or alkaline batteries may be used with your Wahl trimmer. Alkaline batteries will provide the longest operating time before battery replacement is needed. The trimmer should run up to three hours on alkaline batteries.

How do I care for the blades?

Trimmer blades have precision-hardened, ground, and lapped cutting teeth. Blades should be handled carefully and never bumped or used to cut dirty or abrasive material. Never rinse the blades with water, or the blades may rust. Clean with the included brush.

---

How often should I oil the blades?

For best results, use Wahl Blade Oil on the blades only when necessary, or approximately once a month.

---

How do I oil the blades?

When oiling your trimmer, turn the trimmer “ON-I,” hold the unit with the blades facing DOWN, and squeeze three drops across the front of the blade and one drop on each side on the heel of the blade. Wipe off excess oil with a soft cloth.

NOTICE–DO NOT OVER OIL! Excessive oiling or application of liquids will cause damage if allowed to seep back into the motor.

How do I clean and store the trimmer?

Before storing your trimmer, use the cleaning brush to whisk any loose hairs from the unit and the blades. Store the unit in such a manner so that blades are protected from damage. When the trimmer is not in use, the trimmer blade guard attachment should be in place to protect the blades. This appliance should be stored in a manner where it is not subjected to crushing, heating above 100C (212F), or incineration.

How do I remove guide combs?

How do I use trimmer guide combs?

Trimmer guide comb attachments are used for blending, tapering, and defining beards, as well as for achieving a stubble look around the face.

Trimmer guide combs are available in different cutting lengths. If guides are included, the number of guides and sizes will vary by kit. Cutting against the grain cuts more hair; cutting with the grain cuts less hair. Longer beards should be trimmed in the direction of hair growth. Shorter styles can be trimmed in either direction. Before trimming a thick beard, use a styling comb to comb it against the direction it grows so all the hairs are facing the same direction.
