When you oil a blade you are wanting to get oil on the parts of the blade where there is tension or friction. Looking at the back of the blade you can see where the spring seats into the cutter blade. One drop of oil goes down into the rail. On the back side of the comb (the larger of the metal pieces.) you will see two shiny rails. A drop of oil goes onto each of the rails. You do not need to take your blade apart to oil it. Just slide the cutter blade to one side to oil as close to the center of the blade as possible.
