Mastering Cattle Clipper Maintenance: How to Properly Tighten Tension for Optimal Performance

Tightening the tension on a cattle clipper is an essential part of maintaining its performance and prolonging the life of the blade. The correct tension ensures that the blade moves smoothly and effectively through the animal's coat, making the clipping process easier and more efficient.

To tighten the tension on a cattle clipper, you will need to locate the tension adjustment screw on the clipper. This is usually located near the blade and may be marked with an arrow indicating the direction to turn the screw to increase or decrease tension.

Using a screwdriver or other appropriate tool, turn the tension adjustment knob in the direction indicated to increase tension. You should only tighten the knob a little at a time, checking the blade's movement and testing the clipper's performance as you go. It's essential to avoid overtightening the knob, as this can damage the blade or cause it to overheat.

With the correct tension in place, your cattle clipper should provide a smooth and effective cutting action, making your animal grooming tasks quicker and easier. It's important to regularly check the tension on your clipper and make adjustments as necessary to ensure it continues to perform at its best.



Hi, my name is Nick George with Clouds Diamond Sharpening. I'm a professional technician who has been working on hair cutting tools and equipment for the last 20 years. I specialize in hair clipper blade sharpening, scissor/shear sharpening, hair clipper repair and much more! My clipper blade sharpening process is unique as I use a special grinding wheel with a specific geometrical pattern that was designed by my Grandfather which gives me the ability to be able to sharpen any hair clipper blade using actual diamond (1500 grit), which provides a smoother, polished finish. I can repair any hair clipper on the market as long as parts are made available through the manufacturer. I also sharpen a variety of different types of scissors/shears (beveled, convex, semi-convex, chunkers, thinning, fabric, surgical, pinking, etc.)
