These are the preliminary steps that are often useful when you think about repairing something.

    • Try to describe what your device is doing and what instead you expect it to do.

    I want to fix razor hair clipper of Philips HC 3420 from loosing speed.

    Thank you

    • If it is not obvious, check if the behaviour is actually a problem or not.

    • Pro tip: even if this is the intended behaviour, you are entitled to modify it, if you like. Just it's not "fixing" anymore: that's hacking!

    • Did you forget to put the plug in the socket? Did you check the battery? Is the light bulb burn out?

    • In Europe, everything has two years of warranty by law. Do not give up your rights!

    • There is a very good chance that you will find something useful with a little search online.

    • Speak with friends, family or collegues. Even if they don't know anything, speaking helps a lot the reasoning.

    • Speak to a rubber duck

    • Take a minute to think if there is anything that could be a safety hazard.

    • Check the user manual and the package, if available, and the device itself for any danger label.

Conclusion

You are now ready to repair your stuff!
