INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

Before starting the cut

• Before cutting, always comb the hair so it's tangle-free and dry.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR CUTTING HAIR

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 

• Use a 3mm or 7mm guide comb.
• 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 12mm or 18mm guide comb attached, cut the hair at the back of the head.

STEP 3 – Side of the head 

• With the 3mm or 7mm guide comb attached, 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 18mm or 25mm, then cut hair on top of the head against the direction in which the hair normally grows.
• For longer hair on top, use without a guide comb. Lift the hair on top of the head with a small hand comb. Cut over the hand comb with the hair lifter,d or hold the hair between the fingers to lift it and cut it to the desired length.
• 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, an 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, kin and then work downwards.

SHORT TAPERED STYLES – “FLAT TOPS” & SHORT CUTS

• Starting with the longest guide comb attached (25mm), cut from the back of the neck to the crown. Hold the guide comb flat against the head and slowly move the clipper through the hair. 
• Use the same procedure from the lower side to the upper side of the head. 
• Then cut the hair against the direction in which it grows and level with the sides. 
• To give a “flat top” look, the hair on top of the head must be cut over the top of a flat comb.
• Use a closer guide comb to taper the hair down to the neckline as desired.

TAPER LEVER

• This product has a taper lever located a the left side of the clipper near the blades. Adjust the lever to change the closeness of the cut gradually and also to improve the effectiveness of the comb attachments. The taper lever also extends the life of the blades because a different cutting edge is used in each setting.

CARE FOR YOUR HAIRCLIPPER

• Your clipper is fitted with high-quality blades.
• To ensure the long-lasting performance of your clipper, clean the blades and unit regularly.
• Always keep the attachment guide comb on the trimmer blade.
• Note: Ensure the clipper is turned off when cleaning.

EVERY SIX MONTHS

• At regular intervals, the blade set should be removed and cleaned.
• Remove the 2 screws retaining the fixed blade with a screwdriver. Do not remove the blade set.
• Brush out the hair from between the blades with a soft cleaning brush. Do not remove the lubricating grease from the blades. It is not necessary to remove the small moving blade from the unit.
• If the moving blade has been removed, this can be re-fitted by slotting the coated blade holder over the pin in the centre of the interior product head. The groove on the coated blade, just below the teeth, rests on a metal plate at the opposite side to the screw holes. The fixed blade is fitted with the raised profile pointing outwards and fixed with the 2 screws.
• Before fully tightening the 2 screws, adjust the taper lever to the lower position and align the blades so that their cutting edges are parallel to one another. Tighten the 2 screws.
• If the blades are not correctly aligned, cutting efficiency will be impaired.
• Place a few drops of cutter or sewing machine oil onto the blades. Wipe off excess oil.
• CAUTION: Do not use liquid cleaners on the blades or harsh or corrosive chemicals on the blade casing. Always use a soft brush to remove the accumulated hair.
• Unplug the charge adaptor from the power outlet when fitting or removing attachments, or while cleaning the product.
