The Oster ShowMaster is a variable-speed shearing machine for livestock fitting and trimming. Its speed range runs from 700 to 3,000 cutting strokes per minute, allowing the operator to adjust the output for the work. Oster lists horses, cattle, sheep and goats among its applications.

The machine uses a 3-inch shearing head and includes a CryogenX blade. An accessible tension knob allows the blade setting to be adjusted during preparation. Its AC power source suits a mains-powered livestock grooming setup.

The variable control is useful when moving between coat-removal and fitting tasks that call for different speeds. Match the blade arrangement to the animal and the finish required, and follow the manufacturer’s cleaning and lubrication instructions after use.
