- This is a Wahl KM-10 2 speed clipper. It has a brushless motor with a 5 year warranty. Groomers love these clippers bc they are light weight. I have only seen a few that need repairs and usually i just replace the lever and hinge. They take detachable blades.

Pros.....Very light weight and and always stays cool.
Cons.....Not fast enough
My name is Nick George with Clouds Diamond Sharpening. I sharpen on a diamond sharpening wheel (grandpa made the wheels shape and figured out how to use the diamond process. that's so fine at 1500 diamond grit, that polishes your blade sharp. I fix any clippers that have parts available. I can sharpen any blade or scissor that can come apart. I sharpen convex, semi convex, chunkers, thinning, fabric, surgical, and little scissor at a fair price.

Thank you so much for this video! I have a miniature horse that does not shed out so she needs a full body clip every summer. I just got the KM-10 clippers and I love them as they have given their best fight through her thick coat from any other clippers I have tried with her. Though after getting through 3/4 of the job they stopped cutting despite constant cleaning of the blades. I'm thinking some hair got past the blades and it was really helpful to see someone else open them up!
Paige LaGarce hello. Np. If you use more oil it will maximize the life of how sharp it stays bc it doesn't grind the dirt between the blades. Thanks for watching
Thanks you rock.. just bought a brand new pair and only one speed works.. that bend contact part of the video probably why.. easier to take apart bend them up then endless calls on a refund.. there great clippers!
Great video, Thank you! Can you please make one on what to do if the latch is stuck and won't unhinge the blade. So the blade is stuck to KM 10 clipper.
THANK YOU!! Could not get the blade installed in my New KM10 & you had only video showing the blade being installed. I had been trying on phone with Wahl Support & could not get blade in. Once I could see the angle & how you set it in, YEA, it went in. Thank you So Very Much. GREAT PRESENTATION!!
Marcia np. I'm glad I helped you. Thanks for watching.
Hola!! Que aceite estas usando para lubricar en este video?
My clipper maintenance is sporadic at best but I'm trying to educate myself. Can you fill me in on where you're oiling inside the clipper? I saw a small dot placed somewhere above the motor
My clippers is pulling the hair I ordered a new blade and it's still pulling. What could be the problem?
@@christinebarron8467 the clipper probably needs to be serviced, specifically near the head. Clipper blades don't work by themselves. They require the head of the clipper to be in good shape to be fully functional.
@christinebarron8467 Many of our customers purchase new blades and have them sharpened by us to ensure optimal performance. Our sharpening process results in blades that are sharper than new and maintain their edge longer. It's not uncommon for new blades to have cutting issues right out of the package. For the best results, we recommend sending both your clipper and blades to us. We will make sure they perform at their highest potential.
D@mn dog kicked my clippers off the table. Now my blades don’t stay fully seated. I can sometimes push hard and hear a subtle click and it will stay seated longer. Could changing out the blade drive fix this?
It's not easy to tell. I would make sure the hinge isn't bent anywhere. I'm not sure if replacing the lever would fix it or not.
@@cloudsdiamondsharpening3973 Thanks for replying so quickly. As I've done more research, I am thinking the hinge might be bent. I will be calling Wahl on Monday to see what I can do to get it fixed.
@@Linda_and_Dogs awesome! Thanks for watching.
We need a better bideo of where the oil goes and how much and how often
Are you referring to the clipper blade? We have a variety of other videos showing where to apply oil. czcams.com/play/PLRlcRt-31usOlahGsP9d9a2tImYQjCza3.html&si=2hQU7X9-s1oM4p5V
it does, thanks
Nice clipper I never worked on before, thanks for the inside look. Also, go back to the electric screwdriver, if not your wrists will be like jelly in 10 or 20 years.
thanks and thanks for watching. Unfortunately they don't make long torque bit anymore to fit in little whole of housing but thanks for the heads up.
Hi Nick, I got a cheap set of 6" hole in the end torx that go down to T-6 through Amazon. Some of the holes are off, but I have a really good set of tamper proofs is shorter lengths. I know guys in Electronic instrument repair who really had problems with their wrists. Thanks for the vids.
+ArtVanAuggie np and thank you I'll look into them. have a nice day.
Hey dude, so mine has the green light blink but it won’t run, any ideas what it might be?
i have a pair of km5 and km10 and i love them over my andis but they have an issue of cutting out like the lever cant move the blade. what should i check if the lever is new?
Cutting out???? Is it losing power?
Mine keep cutting out on me why,changed the board but still cutting out during grooming
There could be a few different issues causing intermittent power other than the PCB.
How easy or hard is it to replace the housing on km10? This is the 2nd time ive broken the housing on this model of clippers. I cant find a video anywhere
Hi. I don't know your technical abilities. It's easy for me but I don't know how easy it would be for you. I'm sorry I can't help you much.
How do you get the blade snapped on so easy? I am trying forever! Please Help!
Hello do you have it on when you are engaging it?
I am new to being a groomer and I know to oil my blades, but it looks like you put oil in the actual clipper too. I am just about to replace my lever for the first time and want to upkeep correctly. Where exactly do you put the oil in the clipper and why? Thank you!
Hello. I put oil on moving parts to keep the resistance down. I do not put oil on the lever I put grease because it helps keep the noise down and helps it from melting the plastic. But eventually you'll need to get your clipper serviced by a professional because you don't know how to check for broken parts or parts that are about to go bad and to clean the commentator and clean the carbon out of the motor.
Hi would love your help my blades are brand new and after a few passes they are pulling- I’m using oil and everything- loosing my mind I just bathed my poodles and dried them and now it’s not working
Hello! Are they different sizes than you usually use? Because a lot of my customers they will buy new blades and get them sharpened out of the package because sometimes they won't be sharp. Or a kind of sounds like the hair's getting jammed in between the teeth and not feeding through to cut it, you might need a different size blade that's why I asked that question
@@cloudsdiamondsharpening3973 thank you so much for responding. Wahl sent new blades to me to make sure the blades weren’t the problem- they worked fine for a pass over with an attachment comb and then when I was 1/2 through with a shorter attachment comb they just started pulling - not cutting.
The last time I groomed them it did the same thing.
I kinda think it’s not the blades. I’m going to call them tomorrow and ask them to send me a new clipper. This is only 2 years old and I have only groomed my 1 poodle for 1.5 years and the other for less than a year every 6 weeks.
Spent $216. On getting them bathed and 1.5 drive + 3 hrs for the baths and then this! 😢😖
@@cloudsdiamondsharpening3973 I used a size 10 blade
@@cloudsdiamondsharpening3973 it’s just pulling not cutting
@skyislimitless Just curious if you were able to solve this!? I am having the same problem with my cocker spaniels. I love the clippers but after a few passes they pull instead of cut! I have to take them apart and clean them out. Then they'll work for a few more passes but the same thing will happen again. It's very frustrating. I've had them for only a few months. I clean them and oil them regularly. I'm losing my mind over this.
do you know if the showedge blades are better for slower clippers like the km10?
Show edge blades are for show dogs. That's what groomers tell me. Some groomers don't like them bc they clog with hair. So I think they might be good for certain dogs. Hope that helps you. Thanks for watching.
What does it mean if you can move the lever when it’s off?
Probably need to replace the lever. Could be additional problems. Either way, not good.
They don't need to be fast just powerful. Groomers act dumb because they have 5 speeds when we all started out using 2 speeds n it was just fine
Does this clipper take standard UltraEdge & Oster blades?
Yes
Hey man your videos are great thanks for sharing all the info. I had a question though, do the motors ever go bad in these and need replaced? Or do you just return them if they go bad before 5 years. I got mine with a kit from the Grooming course I took online through Animal Behavior College. I use oil on blades and have lubed the inside blade drive part and changed levers but it started to get hot where the motor would be and now it goes but pauses at times like buzzzzzzzzzbuzzbuzzbuzzbzz lol if you know anything about that can you let me know? Thanks again for the videos they are awesome.
Hi. I'm glad you enjoy my videos. If it doesn't get hot without a blade then the clipper is fine. It could be the blade locking up or the blade getting hot and the heat traveling thru the motor mount but if you oil it, it should be fine. If it's in warranty and you have time to wait for them to repair it, I recommend you sending it in for warranty to Wahl. They should fix it for free. I can fix it but I would have to charge a service fee plus parts needed. It probably need a motor. Thanks for watching
Hlo sir I'm rahul from india chandigarh i need your help my wahl km5 clipper run directly after falling from my hands even if the machine is switched off And now even direct is not working plsssss sir help me
hi. Im sorry there could be many different things wrong but if it was my guess i would think its the pcb
What kind of lube do you put on the drive thing? (White Y shaped part)
Oster clipper lube
What size torx did you use? I can't find anywhere online that specifies which size to use. I need to change my blade drive asap.
T10 If I remember correctly . Maybe t8.
@@cloudsdiamondsharpening3973 it was the T10. I brought my clippers into AutoZone to get the right size 🤣
@@TeaElleSea1Love haha nice
what size screwdriver does it take to open?
T10 Torks
I know this was posted a while ago, but where do you oil in the clipper?
Lindsay Riner oil bearings and lube lever or just get it serviced by a pro.
