Is it just me? The lever on the side doesn't hold when trimming. It slips it's way down forcing me to get a closer trim than I want, or to use combs.

I haven't experienced that in my use of this product. It sounds like there is either a loose or faulty part, and I would call either Amazon or Andis customer service and see if they would replace your product.

I only use it w/out a guard for the very bottom of my fade; once that's done, I'm between the 0 and 1 guards, so I don't really notice any lever slip. If I'm going for a really tight fade, I use my T-outliner and a little technique to get the blend right.

Please unscrue the two scruse on the back of the blades, when you do this then you will see 4 small scruse! Tighten them down and you shouldnt have any more poblems,

Hi, I read what you said and the only thing I can say is, If that's the case you may have to send it back for a replacement my switch is not easy to move infact it has just the right amount of stiffness.Yet you're sounds very loose, let them know that.But if you had it for awhile then it might be hard to do it. I hope that I was helpful. Enver A

OK -- They suggest using a comb to clean it, but I happened to have a wire brush handy so I tried that and it worked fine. Why don't you send them a message and request a left handed one? I'd love to have one too!

A clean blade and a light touch are the key. If you try to press it will pull the hair. Try going with the grain of the hair for the first few times, then you can go against the grain after you get used to it. Hope that helps!

You're referring to the little wire deal attached to one of the handles? On the set the I have it does provide a little spring-back action. Not much, but enough that it opens the handles to allow me to reposition the clippers for the next cut. Obviously you need to move the little clip so that it's pointing towards the clipping end of the clippers. By the design of it, it can't-not open the handles after squeezing them closed. If yours doesn't, maybe the clip isn't bent quite enough. Maybe use some pliers and bend the clip a little more? Hope it helps.

I had this problem too. lol. Be sure that you are holding the handle at the grip part. In this picture, its the middle part of the handle that is colored red. If you hold it anywhere else, the handle and the mop head will come apart., Try it. I hope I described it correctly, if not get back to me. Youre gonna love this mop

I am having the same problem - with both jars I bought, one from amazon and one from a local salon! I am watching for an answer 'til my next haircut.

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 bought the same trimmer and for some reason the factory dont set up the blade properly so you need to adjust the blade right so the trimmer can cut the hair right. If you need assistance on how to adjust the blade you can youtube it. I hope this help

I think it's a screwed up design, I have to get a screwdriver and flip the lever underneath to let the handle down and hope you don't push it all the way back up or you will have to do it again.My vacuum guy is looking at mine to see if anything can be done to fix it.

I have had this trimmer for 3mos now and have not experienced any problems. Usually these are made where the cap is reverse threaded to the direction of the trimmer so that the cap will tighten when bumped as opposed to being loosened. I'll have to look are mine now. Good luck

Mine has a gap as well. And yes I hadnt noticed that it does widen as toward the handle, but I don't think it affects the effectiveness. I have used it now more and it seems to still get the hair straight. I would like to add a picture I took of it, so you can compare them, but I don't see how I can add attachments. Maybe I can do it in my review I had submitted.

I have very short hair (5 in or so all around) and I had a hard time using the machine and getting my hair straight with it. I just got mine and only used it once so maybe there is some trick to it. I have to say though it looked better than when I would flat iron it though.

I have very fine hair too, and these things do not work well for me. It isn't the product, but most likely the user at fault. Very soft, fine hair is difficult to keep curled or styled. Sorry I can't help you more. I would love to go back to my younger days and wear pigtails.....

I don't know but it has not happened to me. Only the comb part fills up and you just tap it out. I hope this helps and Merry Christmas.

Mine has done that as well.. Kinda frustrated me.. Still works but that silicone grip makes a difference when pulling and hair glides.. I got mine from a salon ... But yes I have had that issue..

I have the exact same problem. I was wondering if I should buy a replacement head but seeing as everyone else has this problem, I guess I need a completely different shaver for body grooming. Shame on you Norelco. 1 star.

I rarely put my hair in a tight roll where I need to retract the bristles, so I haven't had it happen. I do more of a roll and pull.
