INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

• For corded use, connect the product to the adaptor, then to the mains.

CAUTION: Extended mains-only use will result in the reduction of the battery life.

CORDLESS USE

• When the unit is switched on and fully charged, the product can be used in cordless mode for up to 70 minutes.
• Switch the product on by pressing the on/off switch.

BEFORE STARTING THE CUT

• Inspect the clipper, making sure that it is free from hair and dirt.
• Before cutting, always comb the hair so it is tangle-free and dry.

• Use the clipper without any fixed combs for trimming hair close to the skin.
• This will trim hair to 1mm. Holding the clipper so the blades are perpendicular to the skin will trim hair to 0.5mm.

TO ATTACH A COMB

• Hook the front edge of the comb to the front teeth of the wide trimmer blade. Then push the back of the comb down until it snaps in place.

TO REMOVE THE COMB

• Push up the back of the comb until it clicks off the clipper blade.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR CUTTING HAIR

• The QuickCut Clipper’s ergonomic design provides many different ways of holding the clipper in use. 
• For clipping the top of the head (see fig. 1).
• For clipping the back of the head (see fig. 2).
• For clipping the sides of the head (see fig. 3).
• For detailing (see fig. 4).
• 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. 
• For one, all over cut length, attach the desired guide comb and slowly guide the clipper through the hair against the direction the hair normally grows. 
• Remove the guide comb. To produce a clean, straight line at the sideburns and the base of the neck, 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.

The following instructions are for those users who want different trimming lengths on the sides, back, and top of the head. 

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 9mm or 12mm, cut the hair at the back of the head.

STEP 3 – SIDE OF THE HEAD 

• With the comb set at 3mm or 6mm, trim sideburns. Then change to the longer 9mm guide comb 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 12mm or 15mm, then cut hair on top of the head against the direction in which the hair normally grows.

STEP 5 – THE FINISHING TOUCHES

• Use the clipper without an attachment comb for close trimming around the base and sides of the neck and around the ears. 
• To produce a clean, 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.

TURBO MODE

• To run in Turbo mode, slide the on/off switch to the turbo position.

CARE FOR YOUR HAIRCLIPPER

• To ensure the long-lasting performance of your clipper, clean the blades and unit regularly.
• Always keep the clipper in the provided travel pouch. 
• Ensure the appliance is switched off and unplugged from the mains before cleaning.
• Do not use harsh or corrosive cleaners on the unit or blades.
• Cleaning should be done with a soft brush.
• After each use, brush the accumulated hair from the blades.

WASHABLE CLEANING

• The QuickCut Clipper is fully washable for easy cleaning.
• Ensure the appliance is switched off and unplugged from the mains.
• For best results, keep the trimmer running while running it under the tap. Allow water to run through the washout port and over the blades. Recommended to rinse after each use.
• Ensure the clipper is dry after cleaning.
• For more thorough cleaning, the blade set can be easily removed to wash any hair trimmings from the blades. To release the blade set, push the blade set release button found on the base of the clipper.
• Ensure the blades are dry after rinsing under the tap. To reattach, align the blade set onto the clipper and push the blade set towards the clipper body until it clicks into place.
• Place a small drop of cutter or sewing machine oil onto the blades at each end and at the middle point of the blades. Turn the unit on for a few seconds to distribute the oil, then turn off and wipe off excess oil.

BATTERY REMOVAL

We strongly recommend that a professional remove the rechargeable battery. Parts of the shaver case, and tools have sharp edges and may cause injury if not handled correctly.

• The rechargeable battery must be removed from the appliance before it is scrapped.
• Disconnect the charging adapter before removing the battery.

1. Turn the trimmer on and discharge all remaining power.
2. Starting at the seam on either side of the top panel, pry open the seam, working back and forth from one side to the other, following the seam until the top panel has been pried apart all the way from the rest of the clipper. 
3. Remove the two screws from the inner housing.
4. Gently pry off the side panel and remove it.
5. Gently pry off the back panel (with switch) and remove it.
6. Gently pull the inner housing straight up and away to remove the inner housing shell.
7. Remove the two screws from the inner structure located on each side of the unit.
8. Remove the motor assembly and motor bracket.
9. Gently pull the circuit board and battery up out of the clipper.
10. Cut the red and black wires that lead to the battery.
