The Andis Excel 5-Speed+ is an SMC model clipper. The easiest professional clipper for dog & horse groomers to handle. Much lighter & quieter, yet more powerful. Just 362 grams - 31% lighter than the AGC 2 Speed.
Description
Powerful rotary motor with quad force blade drive technology lasts twice as long as standard blade drives. 10% faster than the AGC Super 2 Speed with 5 speeds for maximum control and minimal blade heat. Soft-grip, anti-slip housing with recessed power button and speed adjusters - yet only 15.8 cm in length. Extremely comfortable to handle. Ideal for all grooming jobs, a pleasure for larger dogs, horses, and thicker or double coats in particular when compared to traditional, heavier, non-ergonomic clippers. Very quiet running with the extra-low speeds. Ideal choice for anxious or sensitive dogs, for cats and horses. A favourite of our miniature horse owners too. Rated for full body horse clips - reviewed here by Brooke The Clipper Girl.
Slower low speed (down to just 2,000 SPM) means much less noise and the blade heats much slower. 5 levels, adjustable up to a very fast 3,800 SPM for tough jobs, mats or for a super smooth finish for shows / competitions. Comes with size #10 Andis UltraEdge detachable blade (1.5mm) & small oil. A5 model clipper - fits all A5 blades by all brands including Andis, Wahl, Geib, Heiniger & Oster, as well as all universal comb attachments for coat lengths up to 32mm (available separately). Extra long heavy duty power cord with protective rubber to extend cord lifetime, and built-in hook to hang clipper when not in use.
Note: Small oil included. Purchase of full-size oil recommended. Always oil blades before use, check and oil during use if needed, always oiled after cleaning, before storage. Watch the how to oil video.

Please read the Clipper Operating instructions included in the box
For home users: Please use the Blade Guide for help choosing blades or comb attachments for longer coat lengths. Recommend purchase of full size oil and coolant with any new clipper.
For non-professional groomers we recommend the following clipping prep & steps for successful grooming:
Step 1: Brush & wash first. Always brush out mats and knots before bathing. Shampoo and condition, then rinse well to remove all sand, dirt, debris & any uninvited guests. To keep blades sharper for longer: only clip a freshly washed coat.
Step 2: Dry: The coat must be completely dry before clipping. Towel dry (blot, don't rub) then use a hand held or pet dryer - not on hot. See drying tips
Step 3: Comb. Remove any remaining knots with a slicker or rake then comb out any remaining tangles before clipping.
Step 4: Clip: If you followed all 3 steps, you're ready for clipping. Not brushing, washing, drying and combing before clipping can quickly blunt your blade. Remember to oil blades before use. Reapply oil or use coolant while clipping. Avoid blade burn: touch blade every 10 mins to check temperature. Always oil blades before storage (watch the how to oil video).
Important: Failure to wash, dry & comb prior to clipping can quickly blunt your blade (note: dull / blunt blades are not covered by the clipper warranty). After use - Wipe loose hair from the blade, use blade cleaner then oil again before storing. Storage - As with all clippers and trimmers: clipper must be hung up securely by the metal hook provided on the clipper - or laid down with the cord extended (never bunch, wrap or fold the cord over / around the clipper and take care to never bend the cord where it connects to the clipper). Incorrect storage may result in internal damage to the cord (note: cord wear and tear is not covered by the clipper warranty).
