    This is the absolutely best demonstration for adjusting the tension on the Andis Outliner trimmers

    I had some Outliner IIs that I've had for over 25 years...they quit working so I took them apart and cleaned them up. Still wouldn't cut. I literally threw them in the trash and was ready to waste $90 on a new pair. I watched this video and you got me up and running again like they're brand new! Thanks man.

    Been cutting for almost 50 years this July.. I have never thought about adjusting the tension bar, I took it for granted that the Factory setting were correct. Very good video.. Even Old dawgs can learn something new.

    No matter what came out over the past 35+ years I kept my t outliner. But as I got new blades I decided I had to find the right video! Sure glad I bumped into you! So much has improved for fading and cutting! Over the years. Glad I found you!
    I’ll subscribe and look for recommendations.

    I wanna thank you champ! You save me from throwing away my favorite Andis clippers. I took my Andis apart to clean them and could put it back together. When to Sally's Beauty Store and was told they don't repair or sharpen blades any longer , what a blower 🤦 So I came home and started searching for instructional videos and came across yours... Thanks for your instructions on maintaining your clippers.

    Thanks brotha!!! Been cutting my hair for years. I never knew about both adjustments. Despite that, as a high school teacher my students always tell me how fresh my cuts look. But I came across your video and followed both steps to the T. And it's definitely a game changer. Now my andis outliners are sharp as hell with a lot more power. My shape up looks better than my last trip to the barber. Can't thank you enough!

  • @shahrukh817
    @shahrukh817 6 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    My man, I cannot thank you enough...I tried 3 different blades in one day (all zero gapped), and thought that my T-Outliners were shot...after watching your video, in 2 minutes I was back to cutting my hair...thanks so much! Appreciate your informative and easy video...you seriously helped a ton!

  • @itanywhere9023
    @itanywhere9023 ปีที่แล้ว

    I've been cutting my own hair and going to barbers for 55 years. Liner after liner still the same dull line. I never knew to adjust both the blade and the tension. So I tested your guidance. 1st I adjusted the blade. Wow 10 times better than Ive ever adjusted my blade. It was just like going to my barber. However when I adjusted the tensioner! Game changer. Better than the line up with beard I get at the barber. Thank you brutha. This solution is the right way to adjust your blades. Peace ✌🏾

    Great video man! I travel for my job so I invested in these to keep me looking good while on the road. Your video got me set up right. The lines are Day n Night from before I did the steps in this video! Other thing that was annoying that you did not mention is that the slide piece can fall out of place. I kept fumbling it over and over.
    Thanks again!

      This will also make sure the blade doesn't move as it's supposed to. Instead of side to side , it'll move in circles and back and forth therefore eventually causing damage to the tension bar.

    Three years ago I opened my trimmer to clean it and it was never the same. It would pull on my beard whenever I tried to trim it, and finally after watching your video I able to fix it by properly adjusting the tension. Huge thanks!

    Why doesn't andis sell two different categories of trimmers... Home use and professional barber use that come pre adjusted and gapped??? I've been a barber for 20 years and still don't understand why the fuck I gotta adjust every pair of trimmers/clippers I buy???? It makes no goddamned sense to me!!!

      jeffrey patterson liability reasons if they are set and cut someone right out the box they can be held liable (sued) so they are not completely zero gapped

      @@enriquehernandez1027 thats what a disclaimer is for. it waives all liability from the manufacturer. if they clearly have it in writing on the box theyre good. thats why promate never has no issues with their sharp blades and tools.

    What does adjusting the tension do?

      Puts pressure on the moving blade to create friction. Too little tension pressure and the blades will pull the hair instead cutting and too much tension will cause the trimmer to fuse out and possibly mess up the motor or the positive/negative cables that connect to the motor.
