I don't have any issue wiping the oil..I just use a paper towel along with a small brush to clean the hair and once a month I unscrew the blade to clean from inside since lot of hair get stuck in there. But do oil it after every use.

Brought a childs toothbrush that use to brush off the blades after I remove them from clipper. I also clean the head/top of the clippers. After brush cleaning blades, I spray them with the coolant spray that keeps blades sanitary & wipe off blades. Lastly, I apply the oil, after blades are saturated I the wipe off excess oil & store.

Before using the trimmer or clipper you put oil on the blades and after you use a dry washcloth to remove excess oil. after shaving youe the same or another dry to remove hair.

Use brush (I use tooth brush) to clean and spray with Andis aerosol cleaner before oiling.

I think so no problem, I'm using some oil on mine trying to save the blade but other people disagree.

Use a damp paper towel. To clean underneath the blades, double fold a damp paper towel and slide it under the blades. Holding the paper towel with both hands, slide it up, down, left and right along the bottom of the blade.

I have not had this problem, however make sure it is not overfilled, and that oil residue is wiped away with a tissue after each use.

I squeeze the two tabs and remove the blade head then brush the hair off. You can wash the blade, but recommend using a drop of machine oil on the moving parts after each use.

Honestly you don't have to just make sure the blades clean, but I just the blade about every 3 shaves so it's getting fully cleaned Hope that helps

Try to rotate the blade after lubricating the bound areas with WD-40 or silicon spray. If that does not work, I would sacrifice the extension cord. Use a pair of diagonal pliers to cut the cord at the point(s) where it is bound by the blade, then remove the pieces of cord. Push the bound pieces from under the blade with a screwdriver if they do not pull out easily. Again, use some lubrication.

I have been using mine with the oil in the water as well since I got mine in August. Sometimes it seems like there is buildup on the little disc at the bottom of the water reservoir so when the water is gone I wipe that out.

No problems with mine. Have they always been that way, or has something possibly gotten around them? I periodically wipe mine down with alcohol wipes to remove any oils, creams, make-up etc. in addition to germs.

I had the same problem that you have and was planning to buy a new shredder . Don't do it just take off the excess oil , that's the problem dry the blades and that's it.

I don't know as I threw out the box and paper work.Have you 1. cleaned and oiled the blades after using 2. Taken the blade off and cleaned it and the white shaft that moves the blade and if you have removed the blade have you reinstalled it correctly as instructed. I have fine hair and and use it every other day around my ears, sideburns and mustache and clean and oil the blade each time.Also once a week I remove the blade and clean inside. With this maintenance I have not had any problems and am very pleased with the trimmer. Best of Luck David PS The 2 screws holding the blade to the trimmer can easily strip.

These blades last a long long time with proper maintenance. Clean the hair off them with a clipper brush and use a few drops of clipper oil each time you use it.

You should buy a cleaning kit and watch the video on YouTube on how to clean it. Very informative! The cleaning kit should be around $12 through Amazon. Good luck! And yes keep it oily all the time (perhaps not as much as came in the box) and try to keep your fingers off the blade.

Do not notice on mine. But, I never let anyone touch them. Try a lense cleaner. Sometimes reflections from light gives illusion of oil smudge. Similar to camera.

Did you try oiling the blade. But besides that I think it's a norm. If you have any problems email me thanks

I have not had that problem. As someone who has owned a few machines I would advise to have a professional look at it. These machines, even if not used often, require cleaning and oiling regularly. That may be your problem. Good luck to you.
