I have replaced the motors in cordless heiniger clippers before. Very simple to do. Have a look here and see what you think.

What model heinger have you got . 200 sounds a lot for just a motor . Have a lister as I mentioned in a post above works well . Only gripe is fitting of the blades has to be done right . If not the blades will jam and you'll break a plastic gear in the machine. Gear cost about €20 .The motor in my heiniger clippers burnt out last week in the middle of the cattle. Repair man estimated that it would cost 200 euros to repair. I priced one today and the best price on it was 450 fitted with sheep blades. Anybody any suggestions?
Have got parts off them before for clippers . Good for pricing . Horner shearing have very detailed parts diagrams for most makes of clippers.I have replaced the motors in cordless heiniger clippers before. Very simple to do. Have a look here and see what you think.

If you want to do it proper go buy one of these:
Rambo quickdraw
Battery lasts ages and because it's on ur belt its much lighter. Plus the shearing style handpiece is erganomic.
Our old shearing machine has been relegated to the back of the workshop!
Horse clipper head is no good for handling dirt very prone to blocking the comb as it’s too fine . Sheep shears head is the only job for what you need it for . Stick up a link to it .Have it in my head to invest in a new clippers in the coming weeks.
Old clippers is working ok, but it is a corded clippers and doesn't lend itself too easily to in the crushes that we have at various sheds. We end up having to roll up an extension lead every time that we fill the crush with animals. It's not exactly convenient.
It's only a cheap chinese clippers that we will be buying. A rechargeable one. Probably the same make as the one that we have. Now the one that we have has a sheep shears head and does a good job clipping. I can get a similar one, but I see that a lot of the clippers that are for sale have horse clipper heads like the one in the picture below.
Which head does the best job on clipping cattle's backs and tails?
The sheep shears head is a good bit more expensive than the one in the picture below.

Are the cattle clippers with the leads a better job than the cordless ones ?
Plug in clippers here, but we re set up with waterproof plugs and no cattle access the area where the operator and cable are. I can see the attraction of battery operated as it'll work anywhere.Not for me anyway. The cord is awkward for clipping a full crush of cattle. I don't see it as safe clipping with a corded machine in muck or if it was raining. Cordless can be used anywhere.

Very few if any hand held tools have an earth wire . That clippers is a fine comb clippers great for tight clipping cattle not good for dirty tails or backsI have one of the corded ones, came with a three pin square plug which i cut off and put a blue plug in instead. Was not impressed when i saw it had no earth. 240v held in hand with no earth to me is dangerous. Also length of cord is not long enough for me. I bought this on the black Friday sale a few hours ago to solve my problem. The guy who freeze brands for me uses one and looks impressive.
