Yes!!! I've been waiting for this video lol thanx brotha for the video .. I literally spend hours yes hours getting mine to zero gap Ana I actually left a small gap between the blades just so it would cut anyone ... But yes ur technique helps a lot ... Happy news years man
i have a question are the 2 blades teeth suppose to be staggered or lined up??? because it seems like mine is staggered and towards the end of the row they line up
I did this and the right screw would not screw back in at all and I barely unscrewed it on brand new andis masters hopefully I can return them for new ones
I pushed the back bracket al the way up and yet it still did not go past the other blade. And I had the blades closed.tried it with quite a few Andis Master today and still had the same issue. Also straight out the box the bladed was not even across the blade. And this was straight out the box. I tried fixing it but the screw got stripped (twice). so I am not sure what to do in terms of Zero gapping the Master or even obtaining a pair in which the blade would be even coming out the box. I went to 5 different Sallys and all of the blades were not even straight out the box. (Frustrated to the fullest).
Hey man I really enjoy your videos! It really helps me to be a better barber. Can you please make more videos of you using the oster fast feeds? Keep doing what you do man!
When zero gapped, should the blade be ever so slightly behind cutting blade? Just so it doesn't catch on the skin. Or should they be completely flush with each other?
Is it necessary to zero-gap the Andis Master if blending a bald fade with a stock Andis T-Outliner? Can a stock Master fully closed blend with the T-Outliner? I see a lot of people using this combo, just can't tell if their clippers are zero-gapped or not. Thanks!
+Ricardo The Barber Thanks for the quick response! My question was also related to what Steven Alvarenga asked, about the Master being able to take out the trimmer line with just the first step of your zero-gapping process. Adjusting the blade like you would on another clipper, like a Wahl, instead of having to open it up completely to adjust the blade holder forward. Seems to be a lot of conflicting information out there about this. Thanks for clearing that up, and for making this video available!
Wow man that thing is adjusted so nice. A coworker of mine took and bent the back metal peice so the lever adjust down as much as possible it even over laps so I have to be careful. Anyways I just got into the masters I didnt like them for a while but they have grown on me I was a wahl guy but I love what andis offers
only bad thing about em is the lever doesnt go to the lowest mark, i filed down the slide in the blade carriage so the lever goes just past the 1st mark, gives me a 00000 and the at the 1st mark its a 000, nice video man, check out the phat masters, gets rid of the #0 and #1 guards, cuts more accurate than the plastic, stay up Barber
I think you must have spun the blade holder around. Some people do that and it works but like you said you might not be able to reach the first notch. This pair works perfect and with all the notches
From what I understand from the information on the Andis Master box the factory settings cut 000 - 1. After you zero gap it like this, does this mean your clipper will cut from size 00000- 000? I was planning on replacing my blade with a fade blade which claims to cut (00000-000) Do you suggest I zero gap it like this before trying the fade blade? I want to be able to blend from t outliner (bald) to 000.
I zero galped mine to the point where when its closed it almost a tru tru zero and did not overlap at all. My question is how come when i clip on my purple andis magnetic clips and then close the all they way the hit the guards??
i need a new clipper. Been using the oster fast feed for a couple years but want something a bit better or different. Looking for a clipper that can do fades and also regular hair cuts and can use the purple magnetic attachments. Im thinking between the whal seniors and the andis masters. Which one is better?
I have this problem when I put my 1/2 purple guard and it doesn't cut hair when I open the blade , I use the andis master and I was wondering how do I give it good power cause they are weak , they also have this rattling noise sometimes
Grab a flathead screwdriver. Unplug your clippers. Tighten the screw on the right side of the clippers slightly. Plug back in and turn your clippers on. The rattling noise should be gone, your clippers should run more silently, and you will now notice the increase in power when you click the clippers to "on"
If the rattling is still there, tighten the screw a TINY bit more until the screw is turned such that it is not loose but not insanely tightened. I did this and the LOUD noise was gone immediately after tightening
I have a question, I just recently bought the andis MLX(the black andis). So when I went and zero gapped them, the magnetic guards always bite when I put the lever in close postion? Any solutions for me? plz
Nope. This is supposed to happen when their zero gapped. You put all guards on in the open position and then close them while the clipper is on so you don't close all the way. This is inevitable if the master is zero gapped
so what would you recommended? should i just use the andis for blending out 0-1. and using other clippers to fade with larger number guards? cause i seen a couple of barbers who use the andis masters closed with guards, but i cant tell if they're zero gapped or not.
Zero gapped the andis but now all the combs hit the blade when closed all the way. Is that what is supposed to happen? Just curious if I can no longer close all the way with any comb on.
Ricardo I tried to zero gap my black label masters & it didn't go so well. It's makes a annoying noise & it's weak I can stop the blade with my thumb. I followed your steps from the video, how do I fix both of those problems? Please help me out!
+Joseph Hernandez The black label masters do not zerogap this way. The zerogap easier by just moving the blade back which takes 2 seconds. All this was not needed for the black labels. To get things back to normal you basically just have to keep playing around with them and adjust the blade like you did to zero gap them. The blade holder where you use the stars screws needs to be perfectly level for everything to work properly. Make sure everything is symmetrical on the inside of the machine and you should have better luck.
Would you prefer Andis Masters over your Wahl 5 star Seniors? Seniors run a lot cheaper from Amazon, but I feel like Andis is more durable and reliable.
Ricardo The Barber Ok I see. Also, would the wahl guards (from Chrome pro) fit on the andis masters? Was thinking to buy the andis masters (90th anniversary limited edition) as it comes with a 0 and 1 nano guard, but i need a #2, #3 and #4 guard. I don't want to spend too much on the entire small set of nano guards since I'm in Canada (shipping is super expensive to here) and I only have some Wahl guards leftover. Thanks Ricardo!
I did this and zero gapped my clippers, but it ended up cutting everybody i used it on. I dont know if maybe i adjusted the bade too much, or if i was putting too much pressure, but it was cutting everyone up and i had to adjust them back to factory settings...i need some help lol but that goes without saying
Hey bro I love your videos and I have a question hope you can help me, I bought an andis master and it cuts really good when it is closed but not when it is open,do you have any tips how to fix this problem?
Quinell Adams If it goes past the first notch its prob because you might of previously zerogapped it a different way by breaking the tab that stops the lever from moving.
My clippers aren't cutting right , the cutting blade is just not moving enough. Idk what's wrong . My clippers are about 1 month old . Tried zero gapping then and I'm hoping I didn't mess anything up
The reason for zero gapping is so you can easily blend into a real close bald type of fade with no visible lines. It allows your trimmers to easily blend into an electric shaver no problem. It will shift the measurements more than change them. Coukd take getting a little used to.
+DJ Takin' It Back because you have to purchase the fade masters if you don't zero gap them. Once their zero gapped they do everything as the fade masters are only capable of just a few things since the blade stays thin throughout.
+DJ Takin' It Back Fade master blade's teeth are also sharp af. I put it on my master and shaved myself. Back of my head looks like someone went over it with a weed whacker.
Remove the 2 screws and the blade....once u do that u should see four tiny screws two on the right and two on the left...slighty loosen them screws a bit and move the lever till it feels loose enough for you to use the tighter the screws are the tighter the lever
Hey I just purchased a pair of Oster Fast Feeds and the T Finishers. I've heard they work good in conjunction and the Fast Feed is quiet and doesn't get hot like the Masters. What are your thoughts on the Fast Feed. I am mostly going to be using them for clipper over comb and small guards. Other than that anything over maybe a 4 will be shears for me, just let me know your thoughts and experience with the clipper. Also a suggestion man trust me make some review videos, and knowing you if you were going to make clipper reviews they would be fucking proper. I try looking for them but the only thing I find is David Warrens videos which aren't the best. I see you making these how to zero gap videos trust me man everyone is looking for overall general reviews of clippers and trimmers, all the young barbers need a video like that and the majority of your audience is probably new barbers. Just a suggestion man keep doing what you doing, you are a pro!
Hey man, I tried to zero gap my andis masters following your steps but for some reason when I try and move the inside blade up it seems like it doesn't move and looks the same as they came.
the cutting blade of my andis masters with the fade blade never stays cuts parallel to the stationary blade. no matter what I do to the clippers, the blade always wobbles. tips?
Is there a way to stop the masters from eating up the guards when zero gapped. I still have the cutting blade slightly behind the other and it still eats my guards.
Thank you. Also, I enjoy watching your videos. I'm a hairdresser and I've got a lot of respect for what you do. I find that a lot of my peers look down on barbers and to them the only thing you can learn from the "contemporary" barber is how to do fades. I like how your channel is about much more than that.
+PlayMeFretless lol from hairdresser to hairdresser this comment makes my day. I'm actually a licensed hairdresser but I only have the license because in ct at the time there was no barbers license so to cut men's hair you needed a hairdressing license lol. Thank you for watching and commenting too
You're welcome. In my area, a lot of barbers have cosmetology licenses or no license at all due to a lack of serious barbering education being offered anywhere. For most guys here, their barbering school is their kitchens and their manikins are friends and family members.
+Ricardo The Barber Love your videos man! Whereabouts in CT? I'm in Simsbury and just got a brand new Andis Masters for my birthday this passed Friday! Gonna attempt to zero gap mine today! Great job, and keep the videos coming! God bless!
i have a quick question if you can help, my dog tripped over my clipper cord and dropped it from the sink .. now the clippers wont come on . i hear a small buzzing noise but the blade is not moving whatsover.. even loosened up the tension screw and still nothing can you help please?
justin nolan i have the same issue with the blade not moving, Larry Barber's video only shows you how to move the tension screw which DOES NOT solve the problem...
Can you please help me! My lever moves when i cut hair and i already tighten the screws and the lever is tight but the blade moves when i cut hair and it moves the lever! This clipper was 95 dollars wtf
Хобби
"There a little small but imma use em anyway cuz that's how I get down" haha boss
Thank for the info I was wondering for the longest time how to zero gap these clippers.
Respect!
I watched other videos and yours finally explained it correctly!!! Thanks man!!!
You did a good job explaining the process. Thanks.
Never knew about the 2nd step. Learn something new everyday.
Dude! You're a life saver.
Yes!!! I've been waiting for this video lol thanx brotha for the video .. I literally spend hours yes hours getting mine to zero gap Ana I actually left a small gap between the blades just so it would cut anyone ... But yes ur technique helps a lot ... Happy news years man
Love your videos sir..very clear and professional
Appreciate it! I never knew why I couldn't zero gap the Masters!
Great video. Helped alot. Thanks you:)
Thank you so much much man really help alot! We also have the same first name which is awesome.
Thanks man, I appreciate the information.
Appreciate this... Definitely very helpful 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Thank you! Great video.
Im scared to take mine apart, I've zero-gapped clippers/liners before, but these are some of the most difficult (& costly) to 'play' with.
Great video. Thank you
love ur videos Ricardo
aww mein you great listener bro..thanks alot.
Good stuff man
Thanks for information
cause thats how i get down lol liked this video cause you said that lol
Great video, can you do one for the Oaster fast feed ?
Hey Ricardo i'm a new barber and I was wondering what clipper you would recommend between the andis master and wahl seniors v9000 ??
What size phillips did you use to lower the non cutting blade? I kit stripping every pair I tried to take up.
Thanks for the video. What size star tool do I need? Thanks
what clippers or tools would you suggest if you were cutting mid bald fade and a line up ?
Thanks 🙏 😊
Ola amigo Ricardo estou aqui vendo sempre seus videos amigo! Abraço aqui do Brasil
so...zero gap refers to the lack of gap between the two blade tips? So even when the clipper level is closed all the way, the two blades line up?
My problem with the Masters is that being left handed, I'm constantly turning them off mid cut. How are you getting around that Ricardo?
Bro love your videos can u please do a tutorial on how to zero gap your wahl styler/hero?
Perfect result !
Where Can I buy the "ORIGINAL" replacement blades for the Andis Master ML?
i have a question are the 2 blades teeth suppose to be staggered or lined up??? because it seems like mine is staggered and towards the end of the row they line up
How do you adjust the andis envy clipper?
I did this and the right screw would not screw back in at all and I barely unscrewed it on brand new andis masters hopefully I can return them for new ones
Is there a video of "how to cut Clipper over Comb" on the way?
what size is the torx screw, or what kind of torx bit is needed?
Is it the same with the andis fade master? @Ricardo The Barber
I pushed the back bracket al the way up and yet it still did not go past the other blade. And I had the blades closed.tried it with quite a few Andis Master today and still had the same issue. Also straight out the box the bladed was not even across the blade. And this was straight out the box.

Ricardo, what bit did you use to loosen up the screws inside the machine?
+Felix Tatis star bit
I never heard anyone use the word "unloosen"... I hate it!! LOL Thanks for the video and new pet peeve. ;)
darn, if only you had an assistant to focus the camera so we could see the internal adjustments
Hey man I really enjoy your videos! It really helps me to be a better barber. Can you please make more videos of you using the oster fast feeds? Keep doing what you do man!
quick question, is it necessary to zero gap a brand new masters, do you think you will be able fade out lines with it set at factory default?
+Ike Vanderpuije They might if their fading into a factory set trimmer. I would still recommend zerogapping both clipper and trimmer
Would u recommend a fading with a senior or a master? And next a trimmer to shapeup and freestyle design a detailer or a toutliner,?
+Jason Tomas Masters
When zero gapped, should the blade be ever so slightly behind cutting blade? Just so it doesn't catch on the skin. Or should they be completely flush with each other?
Slightly behind. Usually around 1/150th of an inch
Nice tutorial, however "unloosen" means tighten. Lol
got eem lol
If i zero gap my masters would they take out the t liners line
Did this yesterday after watching this video and got mine zero gapped perfectly now
Nice man I'm glad it worked fine
Is it necessary to zero-gap the Andis Master if blending a bald fade with a stock Andis T-Outliner? Can a stock Master fully closed blend with the T-Outliner? I see a lot of people using this combo, just can't tell if their clippers are zero-gapped or not.
Thanks!
+xderiwx Its close with them both stock. Its just you wont get a real bald fade easily unless both are zerogapped which is most likely the case.

My question was also related to what Steven Alvarenga asked, about the Master being able to take out the trimmer line with just the first step of your zero-gapping process.

Great video. It's just when I try to tighten the screws it moves back to where it was originally. Don't get it
Wow man that thing is adjusted so nice. A coworker of mine took and bent the back metal peice so the lever adjust down as much as possible it even over laps so I have to be careful. Anyways I just got into the masters I didnt like them for a while but they have grown on me I was a wahl guy but I love what andis offers
masters are freaking beasts. Just have to master how to use them then youll be good. Got to love them
Why are urs so loud? Mine are quiet and how do u like the legends??
babyboy505018 prob my mic I use. I haven't tried the legends yet.
great video sir! is that a fade blade you got on those masters or the standard blade??
Standard blade. I hate the fade blade version
really? why don't you care for it ?
It can snag peoples skin
i have the andis cordless master and my lever will not close all the way like yours , it stops at the 2 to last notch , what could i do ??
Not really sure why but appears 0 gapped but when tighten the screws it’s a gap where I can slide my fingernail through
I deep clean my master andis and the blade not moving
Has anyone changed the cutting blade on these?
only bad thing about em is the lever doesnt go to the lowest mark, i filed down the slide in the blade carriage so the lever goes just past the 1st mark, gives me a 00000 and the at the 1st mark its a 000, nice video man, check out the phat masters, gets rid of the #0 and #1 guards, cuts more accurate than the plastic, stay up Barber

Do you suggest I zero gap it like this before trying the fade blade? I want to be able to blend from t outliner (bald) to 000.
+Ace no it will cut around 00000 to just user a 1 . Def zero gap it and you'll never need a fade blade
+Ace no it will cut around 00000 to just user a 1 . Def zero gap it and you'll never need a fade blade
I zero galped mine to the point where when its closed it almost a tru tru zero and did not overlap at all. My question is how come when i clip on my purple andis magnetic clips and then close the all they way the hit the guards??
because the bottom blade touches the guard. this is normal. when using a guard closed just back off a hair until the noise stops
Are all your clippers zero gapped? From your trimmers to adjustables?
yes they all are
How much shorter does it cut with the guards on? For example is the #3 guard much shorter than #3 guard without being zero gapped?
The difference is very minimal next to unnoticeable
Aye man. Great videos. I'm aspiring to become a barber. I'm 14. Could you make a basics video? thanks.
Ya in the near future I could
Can the masters take out the trimmer line with just the first step?
+Steven Alvarenga yes
i need a new clipper. Been using the oster fast feed for a couple years but want something a bit better or different. Looking for a clipper that can do fades and also regular hair cuts and can use the purple magnetic attachments. Im thinking between the whal seniors and the andis masters. Which one is better?
The magnetic guards won't fit the Wahl Seniors
The Master is heavy as hell
+TyShaun Bland Only when you compare it to other clippers
What else would I be comparing it to?
+TyShaun Bland Nothing. No need to. They're not really "heavy as fuck". Just heavier than other clippers.
Could you do a video on how to zero gap the oster fast feeds ?
I could but that wont be for a while
sounds good ! enjoy your videos !
Ricardo The Barber yea thad be cool
I have this problem when I put my 1/2 purple guard and it doesn't cut hair when I open the blade , I use the andis master and I was wondering how do I give it good power cause they are weak , they also have this rattling noise sometimes

The rattling noise should be gone, your clippers should run more silently, and you will now notice the increase in power when you click the clippers to "on"

@@AzNwacko That's right. Do not use guards with the lever all the way closed, because it will chew on it.
Zero gapped the andis but now all the combs hit the blade when closed all the way. Is that what is supposed to happen? Just curious if I can no longer close all the way with any comb on.
+Angel Ortiz Yes this happens. Just close as much as you can before you hear the noise

I was trying zero gap my masters .... For some reason there making this real loud noise.... Need help bro
Whats the reason for zero gapping because i feel once u zeromgap the measurements are off this is just my opinion?
The reason for zero gapping is so you can easily blend into a real close bald type of fade with no visible lines. It allows your trimmers to easily blend into an electric shaver no problem. It will shift the measurements more than change them. Coukd take getting a little used to.

Just curious. Why zero gap them when one can just purchase the Andis Fade Masters which adjust from 00000 to 000?

Bro search up "Larry The Barber Andis Masters" on RUclips, he might have what you're looking for. let me know how it goes
MCFriedChicken1 larry has the exact video that fixes it, very easy

star bit is called a torx bit
is normally the clipper get hot?
Yes. Especially the Masters
why would u want to zero gap a andis master?
you prefer Wahl or Andis?
Shayne Davidson Depends. For cordless- Wahls. Corded -andis. Overall Andis
Any idea why my lever on my masters is stiff and doesn't even out with the last notch fully closed?
You need to zero gap it

Ricardo my master wont go to the last notch on the closed position is there something wrong
Zero gap them
i think that's how all andis masters are. did you ever get it to the first notch?
+MCFriedChicken1 nope I took them back but yeah thats what I noticed thats how they are. unless if you bend the stopper but I wouldn't recommend that.
