+ Low noise, slim, lightweight horse/cattle/dog clipper, innovative design features with no blade tensioning!
- Faults with the chargers and minor problems. On/off switch in-accessible in an emergency. Limited wide blades.
GENERAL PRODUCT INFORMATION:
Considerably lighter than many other cordless machines, they appear innovative and refreshingly slim lined, and as a result are very comfortable to the handle thereby affording effortless clipping. Very quiet, thus ideal for any nervous animals, they would seem particularly suited to clipping horses. Having said that one needs to approach clipping with these type of machine in a more "relaxed" way, and be astute in the blade selection.
Historically rather an unacceptable faults list especially with the charger units. Far too many problems appeared to have been over looked at the factory gate! These are said to have been "sorted." We would trust this to be so but continue to reserve judgement whilst certain faults still persist.
Essentially a dog groomers clipper, but with the elimination of trailing cables, these machines are a popular choice in the horse and show cattle-clipping world as well as with many dog groomers - especially those who are mobile. Since their arrival in the UK over twenty years ago they have had a popular following especially with fat stock cattle exhibitors. Veterinary practices will find the extensive clip time provided by the power pack battery unit welcome.
Laube clippers incorporate the detachable "snap-on" blade technology, which avoids fiddling about aligning the cutter and comb when they have to be screw fixed.

+ Low noise, slim, lightweight horse/cattle/dog clipper, innovative design features with no blade tensioning!
- On/off switch in accessible in an emergency. Limited choice of wide blades for full body horse clipping.
GENERAL PRODUCT INFORMATION:
Other than a few problems with the charger unit this model has been one of the best in the Laube range! Other than the angle of the clipper head, it is very similar to the variable speed 505 models. Lighter than many other cordless machines and as a result very comfortable to the handle.
Very quiet, when used at the standard running speed, it is ideal for any nervous animals, thus they are particularly suited to horses. The noise level increases when you switch to the faster speed, however it is still very acceptable when compared to many other traditional cordless machines.
Horse users in particular will need to rethink the speed at which they clip when using this type of machine or indeed any clipper of the type fitted with "detachable" blades. You do need a relaxed approach to your clipping speed - if not tramlines will soon appear. Short strokes are better than longer ones, and work across the hair as well as with the "grain".
The main reason for this is the choice of wide blades available. Compared to the number for dog grooming the choice is limited, particularly so when dealing with some of the more "hairy" and heavy coated native horse breeds! The Moser 2.3mm - CeraBlade or steel wide blades - are often found to be the best currently available.
When using the "detachable" blade style clippers one should be aware no matter how good they are they are not of the same power as a typical traditional type machines. Invariably one is using this type of clipper because the horse objects for whatever reason to a traditional noisy machine. Seen in this role as an alternative to not clipping or heavy sedation they are extremely valuable and with proper use perform as well as any traditional clipper.
Practical experience as with most clipping of any animal is invaluable! Knowledge is never complete - no matter how experienced the operator!
When doing full body clipping two blades are a wise precaution, just in case one suddenly goes blunt, which in fairness can happen with any make of clipper!
Veterinary practices and horse owners will welcome the extensive clip time provided by the power pack battery unit of up to two and half-hours. An element of simple "self servicing" is important with these clippers, and should be done on a regular basis to maintain peak performance.
Laube clippers incorporate the detachable "snap-on" blade technology, which avoids fiddling about aligning the cutter and comb. Both the Laube 2 speed and V-speed cordless clippers can be up graded to mains power status with the purchase of a transformer and cord pack. Please see Clipper Parts & Accessories -

+ New - replacement for the Showman which has stood the test of time. Good lightweight batteries with excellent clip time. Should be popular.
- Expensive, and a bit on the noisy side which seems to be a hallmark of Lister clippers. Long re-charge period.
GENERAL PRODUCT INFORMATION:
An attractive well-engineered compact battery powered horse or cattle clipper, which is bound to have a lot of appeal for those who prefer not to have trailing cables.
There are three "pack" versions of the Lister "Liberty" available - The Yard pack as described above or the alternative choices of the "Popular" pack comprises of the clipper with battery and charger, plus battery re-charger, power pack nylon belt, a 60m bottle of Lister oil, 3 sachets of R2 Lister grease, cleaning brush, screw driver, instruction manual, mains adapter (all presented in a silver durable carry case). This gives you the added option of being able to plug into the mains power supply.
The last option is the "Field" pack. This includes the Clipper handpiece, blades, powerpack battery unit, battery re-charger, 12v battery leads, power pack nylon belt, a 60m bottle of Lister oil, 3 sachets of R2 Lister grease, cleaning brush, screw driver, instruction manual (again all presented in a silver durable well designed carry case). This pack allows you to operated the clipper from a 12v battery.
The clipper is refreshing lightweight, but unfortunately in keeping with so many Lister machines rather noisy, which may make it not so popular with owners of nervous animals. This is a great shame as they are often the very customers for such a battery-operated clipper. On/off switch well positioned for quick reaction use in an emergency
10x1.2v nickel metal hydride cells give the battery a clip time of up to 2.5 hours. However the published normal recharge time is between 11 and 13hours. (Bit of an "over night" job!) The ultra light battery pack is supplied with a charger lead and plug. The charger can be fitted with interchangeable plugs for different overseas countries. As an optional extra, 12v battery leads can be obtained offering operators the choice to run the clipper off a standard vehicle battery.
Whilst you cannot fit a sheep head on this machine, for those with a few sheep wishing to dag or even do the odd full shear then try fitting the Wizard sheep blade. Like wise with a few dirty cattle to clean up for shedding or slaughter the cattle wizard blade will suit perfectly.
Should prove extremely popular with dairy farmers due to the total safety factor, when used in milking parlours. The machine has good manoeuvrability.

+ Instantly impressive & innovative single speed cordless clipper ideal for the nervous horse owner, or mobile dog groomer.
Rear positioned on/off switch.
GENERAL PRODUCT INFORMATION:
An evolution of the already popular dog clipper - the Moser Max 45, but in a cordless type mode, with increased power and marketed under the Moser "Horseline" range
This concept of a really lightweight and remarkably powerful cordless machine will have an immediate attraction to many horse owners, especially those with nervous animals.
From the first day of its launch in the UK the "Avalon" has shown it has no comparison or equal in its field. There must be hundreds if not thousands of horse owners who have found it possible to clip a nervous horse without sedation thanks to the quiet running all powerful "Avalon!"
Moser - always noted for prestigious German design and high quality, have excelled in producing an innovative "gem!" Lightweight and powerful the battery pack is intended to be worn off a waist belt or can be slipped into a coat pocket. With a two an a half hour clip time, and the facility of "detachable" blades - thus removing the necessity to tension - this machine has immense appeal to many.
With features identical to the already popular Max 45 the "Avalon" encompasses the attractive style of the shaped handpiece, giving a combination of balance and lightness plus all the superior qualities associated with a German built product. The noise level is especially low, and it has inherited the cool running features of all Moser machines.
Originally launched and supplied with a gun metal blue Cera ceramic powder coated blade thought and often claimed to give a longer clipping life by retaining its sharpness due to the ceramic coating, however evidence was later to suggests this was not the case and there were a number of difficulties in the re-sharpening process even at factory level which lead to the blade reluctantly being discontinued in August 2008.
The "Avalon" is now supplied with the Moser steel standard 2.3mm size #10F (our code: CB0208) wide blades which will cope perfectly if correctly used with most horse coats. This blade has been widely tested over a good number of years both in the UK and Europe and in our opinion is as good if not superior to the ceramic coated blade. Designed and manufactured as a blade specifically for full body horse clipper it has always been way ahead of any similar type blades. The CeraBlade was basically the steel blade with a ceramic powder coating
Due to the many horse breeds and resulting cross breeds, occasionally one will meet a horse coat texture which creates difficulties (for both "detachable" and traditional blades) and in some cases cannot be clipped with this type of blade. Unfortunately this is difficult to predict without first attempting to clip. Often in such cases if you try the Moser steel "fine" version of 2.3mm size #10F (our code: CB0218) wide blade, this resolves the problem.
Any breed of horse may from time to time present a clipping problem, and clips can and often do vary from season to season. The skill of clipping is knowing how to approach such problems! This is when the experienced operator has the advantage! When using "detachable" blade clippers a change in clipping attitude is needed! Fast clipping with long sweeping blows is OUT!
All you will achieve is a blade - its teeth clogged with hair, and a good deal of frustration! Tramlines may appear as an added bonus!
Instead take a relaxed approach to the task, allow the machine to do the work, using your hand as a guide and not an instrument of pressure. By slowing down the speed at which you attempt to "push" the machine/blade through the coat hair you will achieve in most cases a perfect clip. Short clipping strokes are better and more effective.
With sticky greasy areas success can often be achieved if you just "crawl" over the area thus avoiding the blades becoming clogged with hair. This may seem a bit of a "pain" but then presumably you are in the first instant using this type machine because a traditional machine is not for whatever reason acceptable to either you or your horse or both. Hence speed is not essential.
If this is not the case then clearly you should not be using the "Avalon" or similar type clippers, and should use a tradition heavy-duty unit. Having said that tradition clippers can also experience similar problems!
When using the "detachable" blade style clippers one should be aware no matter how good they are they are not of the same power as a typical traditional type machines. Invariably one is using this type of clipper because the horse objects for whatever reason to a traditional noisy machine. Seen in this role as an alternative to not clipping or heavy sedation they are extremely valuable and with proper use and application perform as well as any traditional clipper, producing some quality clips on a range of horse or cattle breeds.
Practical experience as with most clipping of any animal is invaluable! Knowledge is never complete - no matter how experienced the operator!
Head, cheeks and chins, together with legs and particularly the feathered fetlocks can be tackled more successfully with a selected narrow blade. Thick "feathers" can be easily dealt with by using a blade with "more" rather than "less" teeth - we would suggest a #30 or even a #40 but you may need to put an attachment comb on the blade to raise the cutting depth.
When doing full body clipping two blades are a wise precaution - this applies to whatever you clip, just in case one suddenly goes blunt, which in fairness can happen with any make of clipper or blade! For cattle or horse's heads and intricate parts of the legs (udders in the case of dairy cows) as stated earlier select a suitable blade from an extensive range of "narrow" blades.
