Use about three drops. Take really dull blades to have them professionally sharpened by a blade sharpening service, especially if the hair clippers are an expensive brand. Some companies offer a mail order service to customers see Resources. If the clipper set is a cheaper, lower quality model, it might be more economical simply to purchase a new set.
Keep in mind that even an inexpensive set of clippers can cut hair for a long time. While the blades remove easily from the most hair clippers, on some models, one or two small screws hold the clipper head in place. Remove blades to clean and then snap the head back down on the clipper or tighten the screws in place.

Thanks so much Josh and thanks for the very quick reply! If I need to I will send them to you. Not thick. Hair pulls. Help Please!!!! PS…Hey Buford!!!
I used to live on Hog Mtn before there was anything!!! I now live in Louisville GA south of Augusta. First, have you oiled the blades? If not, give that a shot. Lubricating the blades will loosen them up and allow them to run smoother and faster. Just use the oil not the grease that came with your clippers. Unfortunately, there have been a rash of blades from all manufacturers that are not cutting coming out of the packages.
It could also be a clipper problem. What would you suggest? Hi, this is Jim. The original blades cut too short so I purchased new a 3 blade from them. When putting your information into my notebook for future sharpening use I noticed that your phone address on you website is different that that on your sharpening invoice.
Is that procedure done by another company? I liked your response to Karen asking her to call you. A personal touch. Glad that you got your blade working properly!
Box , Buford GA If you want to mail us something, then please use the P. Hope this clears things up! Just got oster a6 pro care clippers in today, started on my standard poodle worked about 30 minutes and then started pulling. The reason I bought these clippers is because my a5 did the same thing, that set of clippers was about 2 yrs old so I thought maybe they were worn out. So I thought I was upgrading to an a6 that would do better. So now I think something fishy is going on with the oster products.
I oiled my blades and everything and still pulling. Please help!!! Would you be able to call me at the shop? Our number is I think I can help, but it will be better if we can actually talk.
I have spent many hours watching you tube videos on how to fix my clippers with zero change. It was a pleasure speaking to you. Both Wahl and the place where you purchased those clippers know that they are not designed for dogs. I just wish we could have done more for you. I have a Wahl Bravura clipper for my Goldendoodle. I use a long attachment — 23mm or 25mm — about 1 inch. When I am running the attachment through his fur, the whole metal blades section separates from the main clipper body and lands on the floor.
This happens constantly — no matter how gentle or careful I try to be. The attachment will get stuck, and as soon as I try to work it through — again, gently, not using force, the metal blades piece pops away from the clipper main body. To add insult to injury, the 25mm attachment broke when it hit the floor. This is really upsetting as I just bought a new attachment set with the metal blades, and this was the first time I used them.
How cheap they must be made to break when being dropped from a height of about 18 inches. Would really like to get some advice. The blade has three pieces that fit into the clipper to hold the blade in place. Two of the pieces are parallel and look like hooks about halfway down the back of the blade. The third piece is a small tab at the bottom of the blade.
