Many customers have the cheap and cheerful Masterclip horse clippers which they have bought from eBay and most of them complain about the performance.

I always had a theory about these and why they had not performed well.

When i am servicing a set of A5 dog clipper blades there is adjustment in the relation between the comb (fixed blade) and the cutter (moving blade). The cutter should be set back about 1mm from the top of the comb blades.

With the Masterclip clippers when you installed the blade in what appears to be the correct position with the comb fully back the cutter always overhung the comb. I have experimented before with a customer set of clippers which putting the comb in set forward and I have had better performance.

This week i got a set in which still had the manual and reading this confirmed my suspicions

Its a case of R.T.F.M.

This should hopefully be of some use for some folk
