Is there a zero setting on the clipper?

The lowest I used was a 1 but there is a green attachment that looks like it will take you down to nothing.

Yes - there is a zero setting on clippers. Wide clipping area. However, the various attachments mean I can self groom without having to shave it all off. - martie

My husband says you have to push the blades back and it may sting a bit. You have to use a screwdriver to get the blade up so it shaves real close. He still bics it.

There is a green clipper filter ( not to sure what those are called ) and its a 1, I think 0 is just the trimmer with out any filter on it.

There's a black lever on the side, that moves a metal guide up/down, which is probably your lowest setting. Anything bigger would require one of the attachments, and they're all labeled.

No but there is a lever on the clippers that will raise the blades to a half size. Haven't used this yet though

Ted, assuming that the clipper is turned on, the moter is moving (it should vibrate) andif you are holding it correctly (the blade shoud be almost flat) then a #10 blade should be cutting very short, problaly to short to be safe for a beginner. You should be using at least a #7 blade or a plastic quard comb to make it cut a little longer and be safer. If the moter is not running you have a problem and you should also check that the blade is not junked up with hair. I am a professional groomer, and this is a very nice clipper.

I didnt have any trouble with turning it on. But inside the clipper, the plastic part that directs the vibration of blade is too weak, and broke after about a year. Once that tiny part breakes, the clipper became useless. Right now I use philips norelco which has slightly poorer design in terms of flexibility compared to wahl, but just didnt buy the wahl again becuase of durability issue.

It's my understanding that you should set it to zero after use to maintain its calibration. That pretty much goes for all the "click" type torque wrenches.

Mine isn't noticeably louder than barber shop clippers; if it's very loud, it could be defective, especially if it's heating up a lot or vibrating really hard.

It doesn't have a hard zero "stop", but the knobs are marked with a scale. (zero in the middle) So if you zero the scope, then reset the knobs, you can dial back to zero just by looking at the markings, if that's what you're asking. Or you can dial in your dope from 100yd=zero just by reading the knob scale.

I do not know? Right out of the box it was perfect for me. I've never had to change the settings. I've owned it for over a year now.

Hello, It looks like you just slide the blade onto the tongue of the clipper. I am assuming that the tongue that Oster is referring to on the package is the flat metal part that flips up and down when you put on or take off the clipper blade. If you have any other questions please feel free to contact me again. Thank you, Ashley

On the left hand side, in the middle of the clipper is an oval rubber button. You must push that oval button, you should hear a click and the clipper will run. If not pushed hard enough, clipper will not start. Hold it down and listen for the click, followed by the sound of the electric motor. Hope this helps.

hold the clipper like you would cutting hair- now push downward with your thump. Now is should come off. When the blade is off, look at the base and you will see a slot where the blade fixes in. Hope this is helpful.

not sure of the difference between the two. But I can say that the Clipper I purchased is definitely not meant for extended use. If you plan to use it to shave dogs or do more than one haircut you might want to look into one of the more expensive models. For me this one works perfect I don't even ever have to use the turbo setting I just shave my head every 3 or 4 days so my Clippers don't see much abuse. One thing I've noticed is that if you do use the turbo setting it tends to get hot really fast. Good enough for my needs.

Be aware that its not just a "plug" you need - you need to convert from 220V to 110V. I.e. you need a converter in between (a transformer). You may experience less performance as the 220V system is likely 50Hz as opposed to the US 110V which is 60Hz. Make sure the converter has a power rating high enough for the clipper.

Did you check to see if your clipper lost its charge? It may have had a full charge. My clipper doesn't lose the charge when not plugged in. Only when I'm using it

If there's a setting for it, I haven't found it, so my experience is no. But it performs very well. I'm not at all unhappy with the unit

you just make an adjustment.. no particular settings are on the mill. I usually use the finer setting.. as I don't like chunks of pepper.

Yes there are numbers on the black adjustable guide. In the manual there is a conversion chart for what these numbers mean as they are not directly equivalent to standard clipper sizes (ie. #1, #2, etc..)
