Thank you for this vid. I've been gapping my blades in different ways over the years but I've never stood in front of the window for the best lighting. Blessings.
I like to set my blade manually also. After I manually set my blade I put my pointer finger parallel to and behind the still blade to create more contrast to see how well I zero gapped it.
Money! Only difference is I put the silver Super Motor trimmer blade on mine because I don't like gold. To test if it's too sharp I like to use the inner part of my forearm closer to the bend of my elbow because that's more sensitive soft skin, IMO.
Am about to get babyliss pro fx 773nmb. Should I assumed i don't need all this adjustment or gapping for the blade? B) Do you happens to know the dimension for the trimmer
Hi. Do you still believe this is the BEST setup, present day? Also, what about this setup compared to the newer Stylecraft Saber trimmer? Which is better between the two, and why? Thank you very much.
Bro I just bought the andis gtx exo and trying it out the box destroyed my neck and even afther zero gaping it did but a but less any idea as to what can I do? Any input would be appreciated
@@kikado3 yeah thats what going to do but then again I hope it doesn't defeat the purpose because I pad 200 lol to have a line closer to blade as possible. But thanks man.
@@claudiog713 I ended up pulling the blades a bit back they are not going to work as good as zero gaping but it's pretty close. Just play with the blades see what works for you they haven't cut me no more afther that

You can use them right out the box. But if they’re not cutting as sharp as you like you would then need to zero gap them.

Hi , am wanting to purchase this trimmer and blade combo but finding it difficult to find a genuine gold FX blade , any suggestions ?
Yo Ricardo i know its been over a year but i got the lo pro fx nicole renae special edition trimmers for $65, is that good value?
Yea very good
i put the gold fx blade on my trimmer too. the original blade reminded me of the graphite blade and i hated it. 😂
Agreed. Nothing like the original
So the graphite blade is trash?
@@mikeydiors its good if you zero gap it
I did this swap and my trimmer is so loud now, any tips on getting it not making this as loud?
Tweak the whole housing around a little bit and tighten the screws. I had this with mine at first but now it’s better
oil the blade slide on both sides
Do you think the fine tooth blade will be better?
