Oster fast feed clipper repair

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.

Can you do an in depth on how to install the grey bar. I just cant seem to get it in right.

[@calebsammons2660]

Is the tension guide (little plastic piece that clips onto the metal piece you bent) necessary to cut? Mine fell out and is now gone.

Hey when I turn on my fast feed it sounds really quiet. Blades don’t really move. But engine is making some noise. Nothing has happened to it-two years old and only used 20 times. Looks brand new. Any idea of what happened?

[@cloudsdiamondsharpening3973]

Hello. If it was not dropped then the field is probably fine. The blade might be seized up you need to break it free with your fingers. Break Free the cutting blade is the one in between the big large comb blade and the clipper. Oil it and if it still does not work then one of the magnets broke off the Armature and is now wedged into the field. It might just be in the defective piece if you did not drop it

[@onexluv_]

great vid 👍🏽

[@cloudsdiamondsharpening3973]

Thanks for watching!

[@ItsNoe]

How many washers are suppose to be in the arm lever ? I disassembled the lever to zero gap and a washer fell out and basically I couldn't find it on the floor. So is one washer ok ? The lever seems loose even when tightening the screw

[@cloudsdiamondsharpening3973]

Noe Murillo one washer is fine. it sounds like you lost a brass plate that goes between the blade carriage and housing so the lever don't move as easy.

[@carlosxalmaraz5244]

Can I send you my oster fast feed to you? , the lever broke because I dropped my clipper now the blade doesn’t moves up and down

[@theprivateclublacuts5087]

love your channel , is there any way i can install a wahl cordless battery, on a fast feed to make it a cordless fast feed, is that possible?

[@cloudsdiamondsharpening3973]

5150Cuts hello. you can do it but it won't be worth the money. you will need some kind of pcb that would convert a.c. to D.C. or get a D.C. powered motor and make motor mounts. This clippers is a.c. so a battery wouldn't work alone and you would need a pcb to charge it or take it apart every time to charge directly. In glad you enjoy my channel and thanks for watching.

[@theprivateclublacuts5087]

thank so much brother keep up the good work your channel is so helpful i subscribed and liked most of your video that helped me out. i have a question, do you have a video on installing a wahl cordless battery on the fast feed ,or can you make one. i seen a video that actually explained witch is were i got the idea of it but i can't find the video.i really want to do one for myself . thank you .

[@cloudsdiamondsharpening3973]

5150Cuts np. I'm glad you enjoy my channel. I'm sorry I can't make a pcb or a battery. You'll need to do a lot of home work. First you'll need to get the power input and then find a battery for the same power. Then find a pcb to convert a.c. to D.C.. Then find a rotary motor that's driven by the battery. Then you me a transformer to charge it. Plus a switch to turn off. You'll need a 3d printer to print a motor mount to mount the motor. Or just buy a Wahl bravura cordless they are nice. They are for animal but will work great on human hair.

[@thenotorious2322]

Is it okay if I crazy glued the inside of the ceramic blade so that it doesn’t get loose when I’m cutting hair? Will I damage the clipper?

[@cloudsdiamondsharpening3973]

You glued the ceramic cutter to the guide? When it goes dull you'll just have to probably replace the parts.

[@bobbyalatrach5826]

Helppp! A barber I know gets his fast feeds to crunch really nicely, almost like andis masters and I’m not sure how. He uses a fine 25 tooth blade on his fast feeds. I use it too but I still can’t seem to get it to do that nice crunching noise. How do you think he did it ?

[@cloudsdiamondsharpening3973]

Use oil and keep your blades sharp.

[@pyroRoy]

Question bro I dropped my fast feed on accident it landed on the blade no chip but when I turn them on they sound loud they still cut but they are loud than before does it mean the magnet got close to the motor do I need to push the magnet part up with a flat head like you did?

[@cloudsdiamondsharpening3973]

RoyTheTrillest hello. I have no idea unless I look at it. Something could be loose or the spring broke or you just need the blades sharpened. The blade could have a knick on the running surfaces causing noice.

[@pyroRoy]

Cloud's Diamond Sharpening the blades are fine it just when you turn them on it makes that loud nasty motor sound but they still cut it’s just loud and annoying

[@nvinha301]

Hello, do you know if you can install a Oster 616 motor (220V/50 Hz european plug) on a Fast Feed? The motors look exactly the same and the case on the 616 looks like it has the same holes for the screws. If you have an old 616 motor, can you install on a Fast Feed? Thanks

[@cloudsdiamondsharpening3973]

Nuno Vinha hello. No I'm sorry. I can only get 110v parts, I'm in texas. You will need look where ever they sell parts for 220v or buy a converter box.

[@nvinha301]

I have the 220v motor (from a Oster 616) but I was wondering if I could buy a regular Fast Feed and change its motor myself (and the cord, while I´m at it). I just don´t know if that can be done.

[@cloudsdiamondsharpening3973]

Nuno Vinha it won't be worth the cost by then. You might as well buy a new one. If you still want to get the part then you will need to look up an Oster distributor in your area. I do not sell parts, I repair them.

[@BigHeadAdrian]

Is there any way to fix a stripped lever on these?

[@cloudsdiamondsharpening3973]

Adrian Hernandez yes all parts available.

[@andrewheale9170]

Bought my fast feeds and put in the ceramic blade. It didn't cut hair very well at all, pretty much pulled hair and barely cut anything. I then switched back to the stock blade and it's the same thing. Any idea?

[@scarfusion3935]

Andrew Heale I have the same problem for some reason

[@andrewheale9170]

@@scarfusion3935 I figured my issue out and they cut amazing... So with mine, when I took the stock blade out I also took out the small grey bar, that bar slides into the lip of that plate, I had simply put it behind the plate and not on the lip of it.... I don't know if that's confusing or not but that bar made all the difference. Hope that helps. That's what the problem was for me

[@cloudsdiamondsharpening3973]

It's possible the blade needs sharpening. Perhaps the blade guide fell off when removing the blade. Hard to tell from this end.

[@randyramcharitar5793]

If my spring broken at the end what to do

[@cloudsdiamondsharpening3973]

Randy Ramcharitar you'll need to find an oster distributor on Google and order a spring for it.

[@Dlewis77777]

Are there differences between the fast feed blades? Like 76913-506 and 76913-536

[@cloudsdiamondsharpening3973]

Good question. Usually, one will have more teeth than the other. I believe they define them as "fine" and "medium."

[@ExtremeKBdotCom]

When I was taking it apart, a small copper piece came out and I have no idea where it came from or how to put back. The unit when turned on just makes a slight hum and not movement on the blades. I took the blades out to sharpen and now the entire unit doesnt respond. Any suggestions?

[@cloudsdiamondsharpening3973]

The small copper piece goes underneath the blade carriage and most like that is what the humming sound is from because its a magnetic motor and probably stuck inside or the spring is broken inside

[@cm2191]

Cloud's Diamond Sharpening hi, my small copper piece came out as well and I’m having a hard time visualizing where it goes. Could you help in anyway?

everytime i put the lever open and close, it doesn’t look straight or aligned whenever i play with the lever, it looks like it’s not aligned or something . is there a way to fix this?

It can normally be fixed. It all depends on what's causing the blades to be misaligned.

Hey man cleaned out my fast feeds today but upon reassembly they sound really loud all of a sudden even though I oiled and lubed them can you help?

Hello, You cant on a cordless Magic Clip because it is a rotary motor that is DC powered. The AC corded model you can not either unless you drill holes into the housing and remount the motor and remount the armature. it might be able to be done but it wouldnt be worth the time to do it.
