DIY electric shaver repair

In detail: do-it-yourself electric shaver repair from a real master for the site my.housecope.com.

Electric shavers are available with a mains supply from an outlet and with a built-in battery. Moreover, models of the second type are most often found. They have a power button, a charger, a battery and a motor (electromagnet) with shaving blades inside them.

1 - Grid
2 - Razor knife
3 - Clip
4 - Button for fastening the knife head
5 - Switch

Electric shavers with a grid system have a knife head, consisting of a flexible metal mesh that covers a blade, or knife, block on a holder or just a knife that makes a rapid oscillatory movement, which is created using a vibrator, consisting of two solenoid coils, which together with two springs move from side to side the holder with the knife block.

1 - Rotary knife
2 - Mesh disk
3 - the Drive shaft
4 - Switch
5 - Power cord

A rotary shaver has multiple cutter heads, each of which consists of a rapidly rotating rotary blade located under the mesh disc. Since the knives cannot be sharpened, they have to be changed when they become blunt. These razors are usually driven by electric motors connected to the blades by means of a gearbox.

To replace the blades in the shaver head, remove the protective cap from the shaver blade unit. Remove the shaver blade unit from the base. Replace the knives in the knife block.

Consider the repair of an electric shaver, using the example of a little-known Chinese razor Toshiko. If the shaver malfunctions, first check the integrity of the power cord. It may be broken inside, for example near the power plug.

Video (click to play).

The next weak link is the power button. To check it, just close the contacts with a screwdriver and see if the electric motor will work.

In this case, the problem seemed to be in the 220v voltage converter that charges the battery. As you can see in the photo, the transistor burned out and cracked.

After the replacement, a new problem was discovered - the battery almost did not hold a charge.

A 1.2 volt 600mA nickel-cadmium battery is installed here, so finding a similar one is not a problem - we just buy a new one in the store.

Do-it-yourself electric shaver repair is within the power of a master. Soberly assess the existing skills, if you do not see the difference between an inductor and a capacitor, you are afraid to measure the voltage of 230 volts without threatening people's lives, it is better to discard the venture. Everyone can clean the mechanism when the electric razor does not cut. But you boast to your acquaintances: now you know how to repair Mikma electric shavers.

Modern electric shavers form two broad classes:

The first are named for the knives that rotate the rotors of electric motors. Before considering how to repair an electric shaver yourself, we will describe the cleaning process. In most cases, when the device refuses to shape beards, it means that the working head is dirty. The electric shaver set is supplemented with a brush and a special spray. Let's find out the purpose of things.

The shaver head will last no longer than 1 year. After it is considered: it's time to replace. It is recommended to clean the unit every three weeks. In the case of a rotary shaver, start with the outer screens. Gently brush each one around, sweeping out the hair clippings.

After that, the knife block is unfastened from the shaver body. The unit is disassembled into its component parts. The holder with knives and nets is removed from the plastic frame. Each pair of cutting surfaces is divided into two parts. Now the table is littered with:

plastic frame;
holder;
two to three pairs of cutting surfaces, consisting of:

rotary knife;
mesh.

Each knife is shaped like a flange sleeve. A section of a thick-walled tube, at one end there is a washer two to three times larger in diameter. On the formed platform with a hole in the middle, beveled projections provided with cutting surfaces are located in a circle. Be careful, even when dull, the blades of an electric shaver can be harmful to your health. By the way, it concerns mesh models. Handle knives with care. Everyone saw the grid. Round parts with slits in a circle that glide over the skin as you shave.

We sweep each element of the shaver head with a brush, if an aerosol is supplied in the kit, we process the knives and nets, and re-clean. It remains to put together the nodes by setting back.

A light click means the shaver is ready to use. Check the product after assembly. It may happen that the parts are assembled incorrectly, the knife block is crooked. The shaver does not work, still does not cut - the operation was performed incorrectly.

Disassemble the shaver following the instructions above and reassemble. It didn't help, it's time to buy a new head.

Wait a moment to take the brush. You can't do it. Even a gentle touch of the bristles can damage the correct shape of the mesh. The shaver does not work well and the blades may become blocked. Straightening the mesh at home without harming it is difficult. Electric shaver repair shops will be useless helpers.

First. If the shaver is washable, clean it after each use. Consider one thing. The electric shaver is good after the purchase for the first 3-5 procedures. Then the bacteria begin to multiply shock in the head, each use brings irritation to the skin, which is powerless to remove with special means for personal hygiene. Try to find a disinfectant spray instead, treat the blades before washing. Naturally, the remedy must be for these purposes. Try holding the knives under an ultraviolet light to block the growth of bacteria.

Regarding other types of electric shavers, they are cleaned every few procedures, without the use of water. For this purpose, the mesh is carefully removed. Cleanse from hair residues by blowing properly. Try, after removing the head, knock the end of the table gently. Partially removes dirt from the shaver mesh. The knife block is fanned with a brush. If there is an aerosol in the kit, use for additional cleaning of the device.

Try the recessed foil shaver after assembly in the same way as in the previous case. The effect is unsatisfactory - it's time to buy a new head.

The internal structure of a rotary electric shaver is simple. An engine is mounted inside, by means of an output shaft and an eccentric gear that transmits torque to two or three knives. The outside of the mechanism is protected by a plastic case.

To filter the instability of the supply voltage, there are several chokes and capacitors inside. Electric shavers designed for use with different voltages have a special switch. For the technical implementation of the possibility of operation from different networks, the stator coil has four windings. Copper wires clad with cambric have a fixed color.

Before disassembling your electric shaver, try turning on the one devoid of knives. There is no automatic blocking in the absence of a head - the drive must rotate. It turns out - it's the head. Remove, disassemble, look. It is possible that the complete electric shaver buzzes and the knives refuse to rotate.

The next step is to check the mains voltage. OK - we disconnect the wire with the block from the case, measure the voltage by plugging it into the socket. Attention, be extremely careful to avoid electric shock. Check the cord by ringing a multimeter (tester). The signal passes uncertainly - it's a floating cliff. Try using a different cord to power your shaver.OK - problem limited to wire.

It is the turn of the chokes, harmonic filter capacitors. Testing is done differently depending on the specific design of the shaver. In a difficult case, the elements are soldered (removed) in turn, the integrity is examined:

chokes are ringing;
the capacitors are not swollen.

There are special devices - it will be useful to measure the denominations of the elements. The capacitance of the swollen capacitors is less than the number on the case. It is simply impossible not to notice.

You can go the other way. Disconnect the stators, measure the terminal voltage in both switch positions. Be careful to avoid electric shock. The multimeter probes are connected to the switched off device.

If no malfunction is identified, go to the stator windings. Call each one if you know the pin locations. The resistance of the windings is Ohm units. It is impossible to fix a shaver with a faulty stator at home.

The terminals ring in pairs - a little, there is no guarantee of complete serviceability. Carefully measure the output current of the voltage switch in both positions. Let's make a reservation right away, the Russians in the country use a nominal 230 volts, measurements in this position will be enough. If there is no current, the problem is limited to the stator.

You can wind the stator coils at home if you have the appropriate skills. You can buy suitable ones.

The next thing to do when repairing electric shavers is to examine the armature winding. Let's check the voltage value of the motor brushes. The voltage is present, the razor does not work - the matter is in the anchor winding. Rewind at home if you know the parameters of the wire, the number of turns, and other characteristics.

Check the stator windings and armatures with a multimeter. Each is removed from the electric razor and rings. You can also measure resistance.

Repair of mesh models, Remington electric shavers, goes in a similar way. In conclusion, I would like to say: a breakdown of a block of knives with two nets is not a sentence. Find a second instance that is faulty, suffering from a different type of breakdown.

Of the two blocks, the one with the knives in order should be repaired. Try to appreciate the sharpness, try how well the pendulum moves back and forth. Repair the better foil shaver unit. It is strongly not recommended to rearrange the meshes from other models of devices, try to make the part yourself.

Each mesh is secured with several plastic holders. To notice, remove the knives from the head, examine carefully from the inside. Each mesh can be removed effortlessly. You can help with a small slotted screwdriver.

The review is over. It is better to take an expensive razor to a workshop, learn how to repair it - at a cheap one! We recommend storing household appliances that are thrown into the trash can. As a test material, they are invaluable for a novice handicraftsman. The experience gained will, of course, be useful in the future.

You can often hear the question - which is better, a machine or an electric shaver? There is no definite answer, approximately the number of adherents of one method or another is divided in half, since everyone has different tastes, capabilities and needs. For example, if a person often travels on business trips and cannot use the machine in the car, library or living room, there is no extra time (very busy), then an electric shaver is a good choice.

Electric shavers, like cars, are cheap - for 400-500 UAH, and there are also expensive ones - for 2000-3000 UAH and more. Both those and those shave, but, different design, quality, and the prestige of the company is also taken into account. I think it's not worth buying an expensive electric shaver if the income is not high, because both of them break down (wear out), and repairing an expensive electric shaver will cost several times more. Or, as is often the case with expensive gifts, as soon as its original resource ends and it needs repair, it immediately goes to the trash.

And if you do the prophylaxis of an electric shaver on time, change worn-out parts, then it can serve for years and even decades, like the well-known Kharkiv razor, especially model 33. Let's consider, in short, the device of electric shavers, what you need to pay attention to and how to repair them.

Electric shavers are available with mesh and rotary shavers.

The grid-type shavers are driven by an electric vibrator, and the head consists of a flexible metal mesh that covers the blade unit on the holder (knife), which makes a quick reciprocating motion. In some electric shavers, the oscillating motion is provided by a conventional rotary electric motor connected to the knife by means of a crank mechanism.

The rotary shaver has 1 to 3 cutter heads, each of which consists of a rapidly rotating blade located under the mesh disc. The knives are made of hardened steel, as a rule, no one sharpens them, but when they wear out, they change. These razors are usually powered by rotary motors connected to the blades by means of a gearbox and drive shafts. Hence the name - rotary razors.

Both the most expensive razors and not so much - all are made according to the principles listed above - to activate knives that shave off the stubble. Let us analyze, using the example of a razor "Kharkov - 33", how to repair an electric shaver. Here are its insides, except for the leather circles that are prepared for the anthers.

As you can see, there is nothing too complicated: an electric motor, knives, a gearbox, anthers, a switch.

The razor usually stops shaving for the following reasons:

- carbon brushes are worn out - it means they need to be replaced;
- worn out, knives;
- the mesh has worn out, a hole has formed, due to which shaving is not possible;
- malfunctions of the electric motor (most often the coil or rotor burned out);
- gearbox malfunction;
- a break in the power cord or poor contact in the connector (can be soldered directly), etc.

Repairing an electric shaver consists mainly of replacing worn parts, cleaning and lubricating. But, there are also nuances, and in each razor model they are different. For example, in a rotary electric shaver "Kharkov - 33" a thin place is the anthers, they are made of foam rubber and after a while they break.

As a rule, there are no such parts on sale, and with a damaged boot the shaving quality deteriorates significantly. And the razor is excellent in all other respects - it shaves well, comfortable in the hand, relatively quiet, easy to repair, but, such a problem, a design flaw that, in principle, can be easily eliminated.

Anthers can be made with your own hands, from soft leather, for example, or from dense, but not too much, fabric (see photo). The boot should not restrict the deflections (bends) of the shaft too much, since the shaver heads are made floating.

In the photo there is a disassembled boot, you need to cut a hole in leather circles and put them on metal bushings with glue (shoe - polyurethane or "Moment"), and from a piece of thin getinax (you can use plastic) to make an additional detail - "eight", with which you can will secure these anthers.

The factory anthers were simply sealed (fixed) with the help of getinax washers (see photo above) and plastic protrusions on the body, so we need a "figure eight", which we will fix on the screws.

And the screws can be taken from an old cassette tape, they are ideal for this purpose.

With an awl we outline where the holes for fastening will be, i.e. with a core and a thin drill of 1.2-1.3 mm, we drill the anther body together with the "eight", through and through, in 4 places.

And this is what happened, now our razor anthers have become collapsible and can be easily replaced or restored again. That's it, we collect the razor and use it for pleasure.

When the anthers wear out, the bristles and skin flakes get into the inside of the razor, absorb the lubricant, clog the gearbox, as a result, it barely turns, which causes the razor to overheat and may simply "burn out" (coil or rotor). Therefore, periodically, once every 1-2 years approximately, it is necessary to disassemble the razor, sweep out all this garbage from there and lubricate everything anew, but not much so that it does not flow. Lubrication - ordinary car oil, any.

Maybe one day the day will come when a new technology for hair removal will be invented and there will be no need to shave, but it will not happen today or tomorrow, which means that a device such as a razor must always be in good working order, in order, then shaving will be in joy.

After all, shaving is a daily denial of Darwin's theory. 🙂

As you know, all modern electric shavers are divided into 2 main classes:

Rotary knives are so named because the knives rotate like a rotor. Before considering repairing your electric shaver yourself, let's describe the cleaning process. Perhaps, nothing will have to be repaired, just timely care of the device's parts was needed.

In most cases, when the device stops fighting the beard, this means that the head is clogged. The set itself with an electric shaver often comes with a brush, as well as a special aerosol. It's time to find out what these items are for.

Roughly speaking, an electric shaver head lasts no more than one year. After this period, it is considered that it is time to change it. And of course, every 3 weeks it is recommended to remove dirt from this block. For a rotary electric shaver, start with the outer shavers:

Carefully but gently brush around each of the nets, sweeping out all the hair clippings from them.
Then, unfasten the blade block from the body of your shaver. Usually this module is broken down into its component parts.
Take out the holder with knives and nets from the plastic frame.

The pairs of cutting surfaces are also divided into two parts. After disassembly, you should have on the table:

Each knife is shaped like a flange sleeve. This is a section of thick-walled pipe, at the end of which there is a washer three times larger in diameter. On the appeared site with a hole in a circle in the middle there are beveled projections along with cutting surfaces.

Important! Be extremely careful, even in a dull state, the blades of an electric razor can cause harm to human health. By the way, the same applies to mesh models. That is why it is worth handling knives with utmost care.

Everyone saw the grid. They are round parts with small holes in a circle that slide while shaving:

Using a brush, brush each part of the shaver head. If the razor comes with an aerosol, then spray the nets and knives with an aerosol and re-clean.
Now put all the elements together and set back.
A small click means the shaver is fully ready to shave.
Be sure to check the mechanism after assembly. It may well happen that the parts are assembled incorrectly, or the knife block is crooked.
In this case, disassemble the shaver following the instructions above.

If that doesn't work, then it's time for you to get a new head.

Take your time to pick up the brush, as in the previous case. This cannot be done. Even soft touching can damage the original mesh shape. In this case, not only will the electric shaver work worse, it is quite possible that the knives will be blocked.

Instead of trying to clean your razor:

Find a disinfectant spray and spray the blades with it before washing. Of course, this tool must necessarily be designed for these purposes.
Also try to hold the knives under an ultraviolet light (lamp) to block the growth of bacteria.

To find out which part of the electric shaver needs repair, we proceed step by step.

The internal mechanism of a rotary electric shaver is quite simple:

Inside there is a motor, which transmits torque to two or three knives with the help of an output shaft and an eccentric gear. Everything on the outside is protected by a plastic case.
In order to filter the instability of the supply voltage, there are several inductors and capacitors inside.
Shavers that are designed for use with a variety of voltages must have a dedicated switch. To implement the technical capabilities of operation from various networks, the stator coil has four windings. Typically, their wires have their own fixed color.

Before you disassemble the electric shaver with your own hands, try turning it on without knives. In the event that there is no automatic blocking during the absence of the head, then the drive must rotate. If this happened, then the point is in the head. Remove it, disassemble and inspect.

Important! In this case, such an option is possible when the electric shaver buzzes in the assembly, but the knives themselves do not rotate.

The next step is to check the voltage in the mains. If everything is in order with the network, disconnect the wire together with the block from the case and measure the voltage on it by connecting it to the outlet.

Important! Be extremely careful to avoid electric shock.

You can test the cord by calling it with a multimeter. If the signal is shaky enough, you may be dealing with a floating cliff. In this case, try using a different cord to supply power to the electric shaver. If everything is in order, then the problem itself was directly in the wire.

If up to this point the problem has not been identified, go to the stator windings. It will be enough to ring each of them, if you know which and where the conclusions are located. The resistance of the windings must be Ohm units.

It is impossible to repair a shaver with a faulty stator with your own hands.

Now there are only a few such centers, with the exception of those private companies or workshops that specialize in the repair of electrical household appliances or the like.

Anyone who has been using the same electric shaver for a long time can probably determine by ear its serviceability, knows how to maintain it, but not everyone will be able to open and repair their electric shaver. Someone is frightened by the design of the razor on small details, but for someone it will not be interesting at all or seem boring; others will use the services or help of trusted professionals.

There comes a time when an electric shaver with a collector electric motor can give some malfunctions in its work. At first they are minor, then repetitive or final and frightening. When the shaver is switched on, the symptoms appear in different ways, and sometimes the shaver stops and cannot be restarted in the usual way.

There is enough information about the causes of many faults and their self-elimination in the field of information even for the one who opens this simple electrical device for the first time.

Instructions for a quick and easy way to determine the type of malfunctions in an electric shaver and eliminate them are so widespread that you can collect a complete methodological literature on them, after studying which, you will want to open your own repair shop or warranty service.

For a wide range of people familiar with the procedure for eliminating a malfunction in an electric shaver, basic recommendations are given, referring to a greater extent to actions to replace a faulty unit or part. The recommendatory word "replace" or "eliminate by replacement" is often repeated. You can replace it when you have something. And when there is nothing, what to do? Buy and take no where. Buy a new one?

Here is an interesting example of one malfunctions in a rotary electric shaver, scaring off many users from its further repair, when such a malfunction is mistakenly defined as terrible and fatal.

An electric shaver connected to the network, or rather, its collector electric motor works in jerks and does not gain full speed. Shaving with such a razor is very difficult, and sometimes impossible, since its non-rotated engine stops even under low load.

There will be a faint specific smell of overheated copper and burning engine oil on charcoal; a faint gray smoke may appear, but this is rarely the case, since most electric shavers have a body sealed in the area of \ u200b \ u200bthe electric motor.

In the described case, it is necessary to differentiate two slightly similar malfunctions of collector electric motors on rotary razors.

The first, which manifests itself in 75% of cases, is the wear of contact brushes.

The second malfunction in this case, diagnosed only after the first is eliminated, is an interturn short circuit in the motor winding; shorting of the winding to the metal housing of the motor; open circuit in the armature winding or in the inductor winding.

Comparing the superficially described possible malfunctions, you can accurately determine the cause of the inoperative "Agidel-3" electric shaver in question.

When opening the electric shaver, it is clear that under the long-worn out contact brushes, the owner put pieces of thick paper, hoping for good.

The brushes were not pressed against the electric motor manifold and were free in their brush holders. Worn out contact brushes must be replaced without fail, and there is no place to take them, except how to do it yourself.

What would make your own contact brushes for an electric shaver motor, I used a zinc-carbon salt cell (373, R20, 13D), or rather, its carbon rod. The material is soft and increased wear on the manifold is unlikely.

The rod is easy to process, so there are no difficulties in the manufacture of contact brushes for the electric razor motor and for the manufacture of contact brushes for the collector motors of household electrical appliances.

The carbon rod of the element is similar in properties to the carbon contact brushes used for miniature electric motors.

It is possible that with such a selection, the wear of homemade brushes will be increased, but it will be easier and cheaper to replace a worn-out contact brush than to change the armature, which has the collector erased from a hard contact brush.

I want to add that I have been using rods from carbon-zinc elements for metalworking and in repairs associated with heat treatment for a long time, but this is another topic.

All men are divided into two groups: those who shave with disposable machines, and those who use electric shavers... The first problems with the tool do not arise: dull - thrown out.But a good electric shaver costs a lot of money, so if it breaks down, it makes sense to carry out an independent repair.

DIY Repair Household Appliances Electric Shaver in Your Home

Hello! Electric shaver it is convenient in that it can shave much faster and without cuts on the skin. True, for someone it causes skin irritation at first, it goes away over time. Another good thing about the electric shaver is that it is convenient to use it on vacation or on a business trip. Modern electric shavers with proper care, they serve for a long time and regularly. But if it is broken, then the repair of electric shavers comes to our aid.

Electric shavers are powered from the mains, or dry batteries or rechargeable batteries. Shavers are of two types:

Shavers mesh type have a knife head, consisting of a flexible metal mesh, which is located above the knife block. The knife block makes rapid reciprocating movements. The oscillatory movement of the knife is created using an electric vibrator, consisting of two coils, together with two springs move the knife block. In other electric shavers of the same kind, the oscillating motion is provided by a rotary electric motor connected to the blade unit by means of a crank mechanism.

The rotary shaver has several cutting heads, each of which consists of a rotating rotary blade located under the mesh disc. In this razor, the knives do not sharpen, so when they become dull, they need to be changed. In such razors, the knives are driven by a rotary electric motor through a gearbox and drive shafts.

Now let's look at some electric shaver malfunctions .

1. The cutter head is clogged... If the cutter heads are not cleaned in time, the shaving effect disappears. To clean, unplug and remove the cutter head by pressing the button.Tap the back of the cutter head lightly on the table to knock out hair. Use the soft brush provided with the shaver to clean the blade unit.

Be sure to unplug the power plug to clean your rotary shaver. Clean the cutter heads with a soft brush. Next, remove the entire knife block and clean it from the inside and blow with air. Open the hold-down pad about once a week, remove the mesh discs and knives, and clean any dirt. It is impossible to swap knives and nets, as the shaving efficiency will decrease, since the mesh and the knife in a pair run in to each other and provide a good shave. Basically, rotary-type electric shavers, or rather their knife block, without replacing with a new one, serves for at least a year. After that it is necessary to replace it with a new one, as the knives become dull. The blade unit of the foil shaver can be removed completely. Be careful when removing, you may cut yourself.

2. Damaged mesh... Basically, the damage to the mesh is immediately visible. Replace the mesh.

1. Head clogged... To fix, remove the cutterhead and brush across the cutterhead to clean the gaps between them. Then put the head back in place and lubricate the mesh with special shaving oil.

2. Damaged mesh... Do not move the blades over a damaged mesh or mesh disc. Replace damaged parts.

If the shaver does not shave well after replacing the blade unit or cutter head, you may have installed the parts incorrectly.

1. Poor cord contact... If the contacts of the cord have traces of melting, burning, replace the cord with a new one. Perhaps the razor itself will still work.

2. Defective motor or battery... It is necessary to check the efficiency of the microelectric motor. If it is damaged, then it must be replaced, which is not always economically justified.

1. Supply voltage does not match... Check the position of the power switch on the shaver.

2. Bit the knives... To check, remove the cutter head and check if the motor is working properly. If so, the head is stuck. Replace it with a new one.

3. Defective cord or plug... Ring the cord with a tester. touching one end of the probe to the pin of the plug, and the other to the contacts on the other end of the cord. This is how you can determine if there is a cliff. The cord may be broken, so the contact may come and go. If such a malfunction occurs, replace the cord with a new one.

4. Defective switch... Ring the switch by applying the tester probes to its contacts. Flip the switch. With a good switch, the circuit in the "on" position should close and the tester will show a zero resistance reading.

5. Charger defective .

6. Defective motor .

Now you won't surprise anyone with electric shavers, but every technique requires repair and how to make a small repair of electric shavers read in our section

A few practical tips on how to repair electric shavers with your own hands:

♦ This idea: a razor massager. An out-of-date, but still working electric shaver with a vibration motor can be easily converted into a vibration massager. To do this, you need to remove the knives and replace them with a piece of thick, smoothly processed rubber.

♦ A few tips on the use and simple repair of electric shavers. It happens that after replacing the knives in the Kharkiv razor, she does not shave properly for a long time. The reason is unworked cutting surfaces. To speed up the running-in, you need to lubricate the knives with GOI paste and let them run for about 30 minutes. After that, the paste is washed off and the razor is ready for use.

♦ It is possible to extend the life of fixed knives for electric razors "Kharkov" and the like with the help of tin or POS-90 solder. Damaged surfaces are treated with flux, and then tinned from the outside. The knife is put in place, and the razor is allowed to run while the movable knife removes the excess solder.

♦ A blunt knife of an Era-100 electric shaver can be restored. To do this, place a strip of sanding paper between the movable knife and the mesh knife. The razor is turned on for a while and allowed to run dry. The paper is then removed. The optimal grinding time is not difficult to find empirically - your repair of electric shavers.

♦ It is possible to urgently repair the frayed mesh (fixed knife) of the Era or Moscow electric shaver using glue and adhesive plaster. Without removing the mesh from the razor head, stick a piece of adhesive plaster on the damaged area from the inside, and drop BF-6 glue on top in such an amount that it spreads over the damaged area and the sharp edges of the gap are under the glue. After the glue has dried, the patch can be removed and used with a razor.

♦ If the electric shaver "Neva-3" makes excessive noise during operation, then dismember the split body of the shaver and put pieces of nipple rubber from the bicycle on the pins that enter the sockets of the movable knives. The razor noise will disappear almost completely.

♦ The shaver wire that is broken off at the point of connection to the block can be repaired by yourself. It is necessary to cut the block along the entire length in two places and remove the remaining wires from the socket. Shorten the cord by 2-3 cm, solder the sockets again and insert them in their original place. Places of cuts are filled with glue.

♦ The worn carbon electrodes of the electric shaver will temporarily replace the pieces of the lead. A hard pencil lead works well.

Video (click to play).

♦ After self-disassembly and assembly of electric motors of household appliances, it is necessary to accurately center the rotor. To set the same gap between the rotor and stator, the rotor must be wrapped with a strip of paper and placed in the stator. After assembling the engine, the paper is removed, so you have repaired the electric shavers.
