Are there any instructions on how to take it apart or even change the blade or adjust the tension?

I don't believe it was. It does take a few minutes to figure out how to work it,but once you do,you wonder why you couldn't see it at the beginning. that is how it was for me.

There's a black metal section at the bottom of the handle. Pull it away, then tilt it.

There's definitely a way to do it; I had the same problem initially. If memory serves, there's a little lever or something that you need to push/pull before you can adjust it. Pretty sure it was detailed in the instructions that came with mine.

As I recall it was tricky getting that blade in because something was obstructing it, but I can't remember what. I got it in after a few minutes of fiddling around though so if you don't have it in by now send me an email and I'll take the blade off and see what I have to do to put it back in john.hawley@wright.edu.

There is a "butterfly" nut where the blade is that you can loosen to move the blade out or in for thinner or thicker pealing. Tighten nut when done. I had to adjust mine when mine was new and it made a world of difference.

Move it back and forth while pulling it out, be careful not to cut yourself tho. The blade is VERY sharp!

there is lever up near the front on the lift hand side. lift it put as far and it will let go and then it releases the blade.

there is a lever on the side of the head Just push on it you can remove the blade. Then just replace the blade

I used some pliers. They are very tight. I had to tare off a chunk of it and keep pulling on it until it finally came off. Good luck.

I've never taken it apart. I'm not sure if you can or not. After about 8 months mine went kind of dull and wasnt cutting the hair as well anymore, so I replaced the whole thing with a new one. There might be a way to change the blades but at $8 I thought it was easier to just replace the whole thing.

I don't know of anyway to adjust the tension but I have had something similar happen with another stapler it was because I had it loaded with too long of staple so you might want to check that.

that is very odd , I take mine apart every shave and clean it and the blade ,sounds like you got a defected one ? since when they go together it doesn't take much to snug it down , I think you would have had to use a vise to break it and I don't see you doing that ,so I would ask amazon

I struggled with it too and gave it to my husband. He detached it easily so it isn't the blade; it was me. He thinks he might have pushed it in a little before twisting. Good luck. It really works great when it works!

There is a lever that you can flip up to change the blade. The thing is you have to make sure you flip the lever all the way up in order to take the blade out. I ran into the same problem and figured it by myself. Hope it helps.

Loosen two screws on blade and adjust straight then tighten screws. Lots of helpful videos on YouTube about this clipper

You have to take out the screw and pull it apart. You will also find your blades once you take it apart.

Hello, James. To take off the cutter head, simply turn it at a right angle to its existing position and pull it off. To replace it, place it back on the spring in the same right angle position, push down, and twist back to its original position. Email me if you still have problems. ameliasmra@yahoo.com Dave
