How often should I oil my Clippers & Trimmers?

IMPORTANT: In order to ensure that you get the longest life and best performance out of your clipper or trimmer; we recommend that you oil your unit before each use. To oil properly, the unit should be held in such a way that the blades are in a downward position. With the Clipper or Trimmer blade running, dispense 2-3 drops of oil across the top blade (Use Wahl Clipper Oil ONLY! Other oils will gum up the blades). Wipe the excess oil so it does not run into the motor compartment. Oil in the motor compartment will eventually lead to a poor motor performance. Blades should be oiled after using disinfectant or sanitizing solution. Blade Care Guideline
