My oster 76 won't cut with them I don't know what could be wrong it was installed correctly as well, however my 1 guard works fine.

It sounds like you have it snapped in but not engaged. Pull the blade back without removing it. Take a close look and see if the lever on your 76 is inside the socket of the blade. You will likely see that it is not. Remove the blade. Now put it back in making sure you are sliding the socket on the back side of blade over the lever. I have quickly snapped blades in and out and immediately see it not working. It is a simple whoops/ahah thing. It will snap in even if the lever is inside the socket so it is very easy to do. No biggie. If you find it installed correctly and your number 1 blade works, but another one doesn't then the blade is either broken or not an Oster 76 compatible blade. Oster blades are made of high quality, hardened steel. I have never seen one broken but anything is possible.

Since I am not familiar with the Oster Classic 76, I cannot say. I can say this is a most excellent clipper, though, and that I have had very good results with it.

Yes. Looks like step 1 in the user's guide dictates that you should. Hope that helps, but you could check with Oster if there's some reason you can think of not to.

This particular model isn't compatible with the nectar guards unless Aspects finally updated their design. You should call Aspects to make sure.

check all the bolts that hold the guard on to make sure they are tight. Other than that I wouldn't know anything else.

I don't know. I would suggest you contact Oster via their website customer care

I have no clue, sorry, never saw that, and have never wanted a cutting blade on mineI own 7 angle grinder and none of them have the guards that came with them on them!

Unfortunately not, I had the same problem. I did by two more of the knifes, they work OK but not made as well as my original one.

I cut stone with my unit, without the guard all the time. watch your fingers, because it will cut them no problem.

I would first check all of your consumables. It is a scratch start so no gap. If it won't arc it may be the unit. Not a big deal. I had that and returned it got a new one and have cut everything with great results.

Mine work great although I do not use the comb(s). Did you disconnect the blade when you oiled it. If so, ensure that you have properly put the blade back into place according to the instructions. With the blade off, see if the latch is moving back and forth which drives the clipper blade. Also remember that there are many blade types for differing lengths of cut and type of fur. (I hope this helps)

It works on mine , the blades seemed stuck at first and I don't know how fast it goes but it clips and there is almost no noise .seems slow

Mine does not work on serrated edges. I think there are some others that do.

Looks like Edward answered your question, the other thing I might add; make sure you have the right length of cutter

Mine did too - but check this out; I didn't know it would and ordered a blade guard. The blade guard I ordered separately sat until I broke the one that can with the drone. Only then I found that it didn't fit and was incompatible. This stuff is amazing in it's capability for the price but it's still cheap and not well made. The manufacturers and many of the resellers don't care, so don't have high expectations.

They are not sharper than the originals I found that my other ones were sold out that I thought the same thing as you but that was not the case try using the smallest guard possible to keep it from cutting into your skin until the dull out a little bit I think there's a half for a1 inch that you could use for guard I don't think you installed them incorrectly although I don't have a picture or anything but you would not be able to use the Clippers they would make a horrible sound and would definitely not work I hope this helps good luck

My husband doesn't have this problem??????????? Is the guard bent? Are you setting the depth right? Maybe it is defective.
