+ Well-engineered, quality product. Delightfully slim handgrip with very comfortable feel. Low noise level, powerful new permanent magnet motor.

- Disappointing and rather cumbersome clipper head which slightly unbalances the slim and attractive body features of what looks and feels a very attractive clipper.

GENERAL PRODUCT INFORMATION:
The first thing to strike one is the ultra slim hand piece - it really is slim and comfortable to hold! This will be very popular with many horse owners! The body, glass fibre reinforced synthetic polyamide, has an attractive feel and looks smart in dual colours of black and charcoal. The slightly off-putting factor is the head - rather cumbersome looking and with a suggestion of being heavy, it gives the impression of being unbalanced.

That apart this machine has all the hallmarks of a precision made Swiss clipper engineered to a very high standard. The inside of the head has the usual Heiniger features - the patent drive carrier system as used in other Heiniger models. The powerful permanent magnetic motor with a 65-watt output, torque comparable with a universal motor of 150watts produces a cutting speed of 2150 spm when under load.

The motor has a very favourable low noise level, which is helped by the lower rpms and improved torque. Increased safety factors include electronic circuit with overload switch and all control element coloured "red" The overload switch is hidden away behind the removable air filter. The ability to be able to use Aesculap, Stewart-Oster, DeLaval and Supershear blades extends widely the clipping capabilities of this quality product.

+ Ideal machine for those seeking a light duty horse clipper at the top of the wattage range. Long-standing favourite of many horse owners. The most powerful of the light duty range

- Ease of use of the On/Off switch. Handpiece girth a little broad and the two carbon brush caps stick out which is slightly annoying when you hold the machine!

GENERAL PRODUCT INFORMATION:
A precision made Swiss machine engineered to a very high standard. A compact and reasonably comfortable handpiece, (the two carbon brush caps are annoying as they protrude out from the casing, thus hitting one's fourth index finger. - small point but aggravating! The powerful 120-watt motor producing a cutting speed of 3200 rpm, which is fan cooled, puts the clipper at the top of the range of the light duty machines.

Thoroughly reliable machine with very few back due to faults! Past service history confirms it is another very reliable Heiniger product. Enjoys a superior blade range compared to any other clipper in its class which puts it way beyond the "competition"

One point worth mentioning for both existing and future user - too many operators run the machine without correctly fitting and tensioning the blades with the result that the blades fly off and the machine is run without blades fitted. The result is often damage to the head and the mechanism, which drive the blades. This is very definitely end user abuse and not a fault of the clipper, so if you are in any doubt about correctly setting up the blades on a clipper get professional advice! This applies to other makes as well and not solely Heiniger.

The head mechanism is of superior quality design and engineering as found in the top German machines, using a cutter drive carrier mounted with laminated springs. The smooth running motor emits a low noise level making it a popular choice for those with nervous horses. Features such as easy maintenance, and the ability to be able to use both the Aesculap, Stewart-Oster, DeLaval and Supershear full blade range extends widely the clipping capabilities of this quality product.

+ One of the more reliable. An innovative design with many attractive features and a very good range of blades

- A number of annoying problems which should have been sorted at the factory gate!" On/off switch inaccessible in an emergency. Infuriating case which is a struggle to get it all back in!

GENERAL PRODUCT INFORMATION:
Made in the USA, and designed by Kim Laube Inc. a clipper of innovative design and which despite a history of annoying faults and unnecessary problems has successfully penetrated most professional clipping circles especially dog grooming parlours and clipping of show cattle.

The Laube 503 is identical to the 513 models, except that it has a two-speed motor rather than a variable speed motor. Often used with a wide blade on horses or show cattle - beef or dairy, and popular in busy dog grooming parlours.

The 503 Laube has the built-in facility of two operating speeds, a standard speed for precision clipping and a faster clip speed for those who want to speed up the operation. This can be a useful facility when confronted with a variation in fibre texture. An important feature of these machines is the constant cool running ability even under prolonged use.

Ultra light, and comfortable to the handle they can afford the operator effortless clipping. Low noise level, thus ideal for any nervous animal, particularly horses. Laube clippers incorporate the detachable "snap-on" blade technology, which avoids fiddling about aligning both the cutter and comb. The blade unit, already pre-tensioned, slides on to a protruding tongue, which then is snapped shut.

Both the Laube 503 and 513 models can be up graded to cordless status with the purchase of a quick charger and battery pack providing even greater flexibility.

+ One of the more reliable. An innovative design with many attractive features and a very good range of blades

- A number of annoying problems which should have been sorted at the factory gate!" On/off switch inaccessible in an emergency. Infuriating case which is a struggle to get it all back in!

GENERAL PRODUCT INFORMATION:
The Laube 513 is identical to the 503 model, except that it has a variable speed motor rather than two speeds. The variable speed facility allows for you to set the speed at which you wish to clip at any time by turning a knob situated at the rear. This can be a useful facility when confronted with variations in hair texture. An important feature of these machines is the constant cool running ability even under prolonged use.

Laube clippers have a long history of often small, but highly annoying problems. Costs can escalate with repairs and therefore they are really not for "Widows and orphans!" We are told these have been re-dressed, and there is some evidence to suggest that is the case, but other faults then occur and as a result one sees too many Laube clippers back for repairs. Some of the problems in fairness is end-user carelessness and neglect, but a fair degree is down to the manufacturer.

The slogan on the packaging "World Class" might seem - ambitious! This is all very regrettable as this is a range of clipper, which could have swept the animal clipping world if only they performed in a more reliable manner. Hence the fact we are reluctant to award a higher rating.

Ultra light, and comfortable to the handle they can afford the operator effortless clipping. Low noise level, thus ideal for any nervous animal, particularly horses. Laube clippers incorporate the detachable "snap-on" blade technology, which avoids fiddling about aligning both the cutter and comb.

+ Ultra compact. An innovative design with many attractive features and a very good range of blades

- Varying noise levels. Limited range of wide blades. On/off switch inaccessible in an emergency.

GENERAL PRODUCT INFORMATION:
Virtually identical to the Laube model 555 but shorter and without a battery much lighter. A useful mains addition to the range, which could appeal to many horse owners due to the compact nature and small size. Considerably lighter than many other mains machines of its size and power and as a result gives the impression of being comfortable to the handle.

Some field trials carried out on an unwashed summer coated fell pony using a Wahl/Moser wide 2.3 2mm blade proved impressive, however the production model we received to used was not one of the quietest, in fact surprisingly noisy especially at the higher end of the speed ratio, and as such we would have reservations about recommend it for really nervous animals, particularly horses.

Any horse owner thinking about this machine 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 - whether ceramic or steel. 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 of blades 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 the 2.3mm steel wide blades - are often found to be the best currently available for use on horse especially.

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!

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.

+ A smooth running machine attractive horse clipper, with reliable service history and innovative design features!

- Nice machine very well made but incorporating a "cumbersome" looking clipper head.

GENERAL PRODUCT INFORMATION:
A well-engineered German made compact machine giving reliable performance and good quality clip, ideal as a light duty clipper for many horse owners.
An attractive machine rather spoilt, in our opinion, by a clipper head, which is best described as being more like a sheep head as on a shearing machine. We feel this gives the impression of being bulky and not of "easy handling!" From an engineering point it may well have good merits, but from the end users point it appears unnecessarily bulky and weight. Unfortunately may put potential horse clipper seeking customer off purchasing. In actual fact if you forget all about the shape of the head it is a really good sound buy.

At 2100 double cutting strokes per minute the motor emits a smooth note at a reasonable noise level whilst giving optimal cutting power. Fitted with a light aluminium head housing. All moving parts in the gearbox are self-lubricating and it is fitted with the new "whispering" oscillating cutter drive system.

The on/off switch was located in an in-accessible position for operator's safety in an emergency situation on the model we reviewed.

+ A light attractive clipper appearing to fulfil all the requirements of the single horse owner machine.

- Rather cheap plastic body casing. Not one for the nervous horse! At 45 watts it will not appreciate being pushed.

GENERAL PRODUCT INFORMATION:
As the principle horse clipping machine of the range one is tempted to express disappointment at the loud noise factor which seems to be a feature of Lister machines, and as a result will surely limit this model to use on "bomb proof" horses as opposed to anything a bit on the nervous side.

Innovative and described as "the shape of the future" the Neon introduces a new shape for a new century! Lister has at last broken away from the concept of bulk - however still retaining an unhealthy liking for higher noise levels. Features such as easy maintenance, 5 meters of hardwearing two-core rubber sheathed cable, double insulation and built in thermal over load gives added safety.

A light duty machine engineered for high performance and trouble free clipping, The newly designed triangulated body fits comfortably into the smallest of hands, and the shortened body of the machine gives greater manoeuvrability especially around the leg areas. An advanced motor designed (permanent magnet type) is simple to maintain and ensures constant working speed even in the thickest of coats. Fitted with an easily replaceable filter ensuring efficient ventilation for continuous cool running. Ladies who do the clipping will appreciate the lightweight feel!

45watts seems a bit on the low side especially as many potential customers are swayed on wattage, and more especially as most of the "competition" offers higher wattage ratings. The handling of the clipper casing has a slight "cheapness" feel about it.

LISTER BLADE RANGE:
A2/AC - 2-4mm. Medium
A2F/AC - 1.5mm. Fine
CA2/AC - 2.5mm. Coarse
A2S/AC - 0.1mm. Surgical
Cover Cote - 5mm. Blocking blade

NB. All LISTER blades are self-cleaning and the combs and ribbed to aid self cooling whilst operational.

+ Impressive light duty small clipper on most breeds of horses, certainly with the CeraBlade on of the best of its type. Ideal for the nervous animal.

- Slightly limited range of existing wide blades. Rear positioned on/off switch.

GENERAL PRODUCT INFORMATION:
The Moser "Horseline" Artiko is a cloned copy of the highly successful Moser Max 45 - one of the most powerful dog clippers on the market.

The Artiko inherits all these qualities and with the "improved" ceramic blade technology it should justify the increased price, and will certainly often prove to be the difference between clipping or not on many a nervous animal.

The newly launched Cera ceramic coated blade with a longer clipping life is a welcomed introduction, however some evidence suggests whilst they work perfectly on most breeds of horses - a few - thick coated cobs and natives - can presents problems!

The ceramic-coated blade is not the same as the pure ceramic blade sets used by some of the dog groomers. This is a steel blade coated with ceramic powder, which as a result give increased performance and is said to stay sharper for longer. Subsequent lapping (sharpening) will wear away the ceramic coating in time, however one still has a very useful steel blade when this happens.

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 - whether ceramic or steel. 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". Applied in this way and the clipper will perform to expectations in most cases.

The main reason for this is the choice of wide blades available. Compared to the number of blades 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 the 2.3mm 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 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!

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! For cattle or horse's heads and intricate parts of the legs (udders in the case of dairy cows) one can select a suitable blade from an extensive range of "narrow" blades.

Equipped with an efficient two-speed 45w motor, it has all the superior qualities associated with a quality German built product. The attractive style of the casing enhances a shaped handpiece, giving the combination of balance and lightness, which will be popular with many female users. Various features put this machine into a superior category, especially the ability to operate at two speeds and over prolonged periods without any signs of overheating. With a very acceptable noise level it is almost vibration free.

+ Very well engineered. Few go wrong, has an appetite for hard work!

- The "last century" appearance suggests it is well overdue for an uplift and some modern innovation. Been over taken in recent years by the far higher wattage and more modern Heiniger machines!

GENERAL PRODUCT INFORMATION:
Produced by Wolseley who has a well-established reputation for really good engineering. Once a very popular clipper, especially amongst horse owners.

Unfortunately this is a machine now with a distinctly "last century" look, which rather says it all! A reinforced nylon head aids the reduction of the overall body weight and assists in lowering the general noise level produced by the motor.

The machine is fitted with a safety strap, and has a thermal overload cut out switch for added safety. The air-cooled motor and ventilated head ensures cool running and prolonged life. A sheep-shearing head cannot be fitted as the motor lack sufficient power.

WOLSELEY BLADE RANGE:
A2 - 2mm - horse/cattle - Standard blade
A2F - 1mm - cattle - Fine blade
A6 - 6mm - cattle/horses - Coarse blade
A7 - 7mm - horse/cattle - Ex coarse blade
Plucking blade -10mm - Show cattle/horses legs

Certain LISCOP BLADES can be fitted to this clipper.
