HOW TO USE

BEFORE STARTING THE CUT

TO REMOVE THE COMB

• Holding the clipper with the blades facing away from you, firmly push the comb upward and away from the blades.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR HAIR CUTTING

Note: For even cutting, allow the comb attachment/blade to cut its way through the hair. Do not force it through quickly. If you are cutting for the first time, start with the maximum comb attachment. 

STEP 1  – Nape of the neck 

• Set the comb to 3mm or 6mm.
• Hold the clipper with the blade teeth pointing upwards. Begin starting at the centre of the head at the base of the neck.
• Slowly lift the clipper, working upwards and outwards through the hair, trimming just a little at a time..

STEP 2 – Back of the head 

• With the comb set at 12mm or 18mm, cut the hair at the back of the head.

STEP 3 – Side of the head

• Set the comb to 3mm or 6mm, trim sideburns. Then change the setting to 9mm and continue to cut the top of the head.

STEP 4 – Top of the head 

• Use the longer length comb attachment and set it to 24mm or 27mm, then cut hair on top of the head against the direction in which the hair normally grows.
• For longer hair on top, use the longer length comb attachment (24 – 42mm) to achieve the desired style.
• Always work from the back of the head.

STEP 5 – The finishing touches

• Use the clipper without an attachment comb for close trimming around the base and sides of the neck. 
• To produce,, a clean,n straight line at the sideburns, reverse the hair clipper. Place the reversed clipper at right angles to the head, tips of the blades lightly touching the skin, and then work downwards.
