20 Most Recent Braun Pulsonic Rechargeable Cordless Men's Razor - Silver Questions & Answers

Hello

Remove the electrical cord from the base of the shaver.

Press down and slide off the panel on the front of the shaver.

Remove the two nickel-plated batteries. Use these batteries as a guide to purchase new batteries at a hardware store or home repair store. Recycle the old batteries when finished. (Many hardware and home repair stores have battery-recycling stations.)

Put the new batteries inside the shaver and press gently to pop into place.

Place the front panel back on the shaver and plug the electrical cord into the bottom of the shaver. Connect to an electrical outlet to charge.

Are you using the cleaning solution? On the following web blog, it talks about the razor, and mentions the cleaning solution, that is needed:

I saw similar problems reported on the net, and they had to send the unit in for repair and replacement of some "parts".
You might contact Braun, and see what support they can offer you. Here's their site:

Good luck, and hope this helps.

are you putting to much fluid into container ---or is container damaged

If it is not in the user manual, you should not dismantle the Brown razors. I know they are very difficult to open and a pain to reassemble. They can easily be damaged when you try to " repair" these shavers. Just send it back to Braun, or your shop. In Europe we have 2 years of warranty. If the warranty is over, please buy a new one.

Sorry, but there is no way to sharpen the blades. If dull, you will need to replace them

You will find replacement at shaveroutlet.com. See link below

To disassemble a Braun 9595 (and others like it):

Remove the rubber back and side piece by prying with a small screwdriver on one side near where the three arc design meets the silver body (photo 1). After releasing one side snap (photo 2), release the opposite side snap or use your fingers to pry around the rubber piece until both snaps are disengaged and the piece can be removed (photo 3).

This reveals the back of the shaver, which is held in place with four Torx screws. Fortunately, the screw heads are slotted so that either a torx wrench or a slotted screwdriver may be used for removal.

After the screws are removed, the shaver back plate may be lifted out (photo 4), exposing the battery and control board assembly, and the shaver/motor assembly (photo 5).

The battery is not soldered in place and may be removed by prying on one end to lift its positive or negative pin away from its contact. Then remove the battery (note that the negative side points to the shaver head. Also, the positive and negative pins are sized differently to prevent accidental reversal.

Reassembly has one essential step that must be followed or the razor will not function properly. Photo 6 shows the correct engagement of the shaver's back plate plastic pins with the shaver head's capture slots (shown "upside down"). Photo 7 shows the potential misalignment after the shaver head is inserted into the shaver body for reassembly. To overcome this when installing the shaver's back plate, ensure that the back plate's pins are first inserted into the capture slots (photo 8). Although the back plate may not appear to be positioned properly at first, it may be pushed downward which will "pull" the screw holes into alignment for inserting the screws.

Before inserting the screws, test the power ON button to ensure that all contacts have properly been made. If the shaver does not operate, check to see if any of the power tabs have been bent away from its associated contact point.

Hi Sorry I don't have the answer but this must be a common problem as my braun has the trimmer sticking out at 45 degrees when closed. The head lock went 2 weeks before the trimmer wouldn't retract so it looks like a design problem

Hi -
How old is your razor? It's possible that the battery's shot.
One of the problems with rechargable batteries is that they have "memory". If you put them on a charger when, say, they're only at 50%, then over time they'll start thinking that 50% is actually 0%. This is why it's often advised to run your appliance down to nothing (your razor, your laptop, your rechargable flashlight) before putting it on the charger.

Alternatively, your charger might be acting up. Best recommendation would be to take your razor (and charger) to a shop to be tested. This is an expensive razor, and if you like it, it would make more sense (and be cheaper) to get it fixed rather than toss it into the land fill & buy another.

Good luck...

The battery is inside the shaver body. You must remove the rubberized grip to access the screws to disassemble it. You can not use any rechargeable battery. The battery is lithiun ion. The correct battery is available at shaveroutlet.com. See link below
