Wahl Operating Instructions

BEFORE YOU CUT HAIR

1. Your clipper should be clean, oiled and in perfect working condition.
2. If your kit includes a plastic cape, place it around the neck, tying the strings and overlapping the cape portion to prevent the hair from falling down inside the collar. If no cape is provided, a towel will do nicely.
3. Position the person whose hair is to be cut on a stool or chair so that the top of the head is about even with your eyes.
4. After combing through the hair to remove all tangles, hold the clipper in relaxed, comfortable grip, with the nameplate under the palm near your index finger. This grip will help you maintain comfortable, accurate cutting control.

To attach guide combs, hold comb with the teeth up. Snap guide comb attachment firmly to the bottom of the clipper blade (Fig. 3). Guide combs attach to the clipper, not the detail trimmer.

USING THE DETAIL TRIMMER

Use your detail trimmer to cut closer than the clipper, such as outlining and finishing the haircut. The blades of your detail trimmer are narrower and designed for easier detail work. The blades extend further from the unit, so you can feel comfortable detailing around the ears, sideburns and neckline.

1. Turn the unit to the OFF position (Fig. 1a).

   

2. Adjust the taper lever to the close cut position(Fig. 2a).
3. Open your detail trimmer.
   • First unsnap the detail trimmer lid by lifting up at the edges of the lid. Lift the detail trimmer lid around the clipper blade (Fig. 6a).
   • Guide the detail trimmer lid over the clipper blade. In order for the detail trimmer to function properly, the clipper blade must be positioned between the trimmer lid and detail trimmer guide fingers.
   • Press down on the top centre of the detail trimmer lid and snap on the clipper blade (Fig. 6b). 

   • Do not push on the detail trimmer blade.

     

4. Turn the control to the ON position and use for detail trimming.(See cutting hair tips on technique). 

5. After trimming, turn the control to the OFF position. Clean your detail trimmer blade with the cleaning brush.

   

6. Close your detail trimmer.

   

   • Unsnap the detail trimmer lid from the clipper lid by lifting the back of the trimmer lid. Lift the detail trimmer lid around the detail clipper blade.
   • Tuck the detail trimmer blade down and snap into place by pressing down on the top centre of the detail trimmer lid.

7. When exposed to excessive force such as dropping, the detail trimmer is designed to pop off rather than break off. To re-attach your detail trimmer, simply snap the detail trimmer arm back into place.

   

Wahl 2-in-1 Hair Clip & Trim G116B Description

The Wahl 2-in-1 Hair Clip & Trim G116B is a compact and versatile grooming tool that is perfect for men who want to maintain their haircuts and beards at home. It has a sleek and modern design that looks great in any bathroom or travel bag. The device is easy to use, with simple controls that allow you to switch between the hair clipper and precision trimmer with ease.

The high-quality blades cut hair cleanly and evenly, leaving a smooth and natural finish. The adjustable taper control allows you to achieve a wide range of hairstyles, from fades to tapered cuts. The guide combs are easy to attach and remove, and the device comes with a cleaning brush and blade oil to keep it in top shape.

General Information

1. Always start by placing the largest guide comb on the clipper, then use shorter combs if a shorter length is desired.
2. Cut only a small amount until you become accustomed to how long each guide comb leaves the hair.
3. Allowing the clipper to cut its way through the hair gives a uniform cut. Do not force the clipper through hair at a faster rate.
4. Your hair grows evenly all over your head. A simple, light trimming at the lower neck and sides between professional haircuts may be all you need to bring back that well groomed look.
5. Remember this procedure requires practice, and it’s always better to leave too much hair the first few haircuts.

FOR MEDIUM TO LONG CUTS

1. Comb the hair so it falls into its natural direction.
2. Place the largest guide comb into your clipper.
3. Trim the sides from the bottom upwards. Begin by holding the clipper lightly against the hair. The teeth of the guide comb should be pointing up but flat against the head. Slowly lift the clipper up and outward through the hair (similar to a rocking motion).
4. Cut only a small amount at a time.
5. Repeat around sides and back of head.
6. For slightly shorter hair, either change to a shorter guide comb or apply more pressure and less lift away from head with the present attachment.
7. Now cut the hair at the top of the head.  Use the 1-inch guide comb for a fairly short cut. If your kit includes 1-1/4-inch or 1-1/2-inch guide comb, you may use this for a slightly longer cut. Place the teeth against the head, and slowly trim from the front to back.
8. Comb the hair to assess if further cutting is necessary.
9. Outline sideburns and necklines by using the detail trimmer.

FOR LONGER HAIR ON TOP

By not using a guide comb, a longer cut can be achieved. Use either a barber comb or a regular comb, lift the hair on top of the head, cutting over the comb. You may also grasp the hair between the fingers and cut to the desired length. Continue this procedure from the front to the back of the head, gradually cutting the hair shorter by reducing the space between the comb or fingers and the head. Comb frequently to remove trimmed hair and check for uneven strands.

FOR SHORT CUTS

1. Repeat point 1 from General Information.
2. 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.
3. Cut the hair against the direction in which it grows, from the front to the crown.
4. Use closer cutting guide combs to taper the hair down to the neckline, as desired.
5. Comb hair and check for uneven spots.
6. Outline sideburns and neckline using the detail trimmer.

Using Left & Right Ear Combs 

1. Attach the left ear taper comb to your clipper and stand facing the left ear.
2. Hold the clipper at a slight angle against the head. Position the comb just back of the left ear at the hairline.
3. Move the clipper in a small half circle pattern around the ear toward the front of the head. Several small strokes may work best, depending on the length of the hair. Slowly move the clipper upward and outward. Be mindful of the ear. This procedure will allow you to guide hair into the comb towards the clipper blades. You may also achieve a tapering of sideburns by including the sideburn area as you begin to move the clipper around the ear.

Right Ear Taper

Attach the right ear taper guide comb to your clipper. Stand facing the right ear and repeat the process described above for the left ear.

OUTLINING

The narrower blades of the detail trimmer make trimming and outlining around the ears, neckline and sideburns easier.

1. Engage your detail trimmer.
2. Comb hair into desired style.
3. Start between the ear and the sideburns.
4. Hold detail trimmer with corner edge of blade against the hairline.
5. Slowly follow the desired outline of the hair over, around and behind the ears.
6. To define sideburns and the back of the neck, hold the detail trimmer upside down, against the skin at the desired length and move down.
7. Comb hair and check that sides are even. Check for uneven spots throughout the haircut.

Setup Guide

To set up the Wahl 2-in-1 Hair Clip & Trim G116B, follow these steps:

1. Charge the device completely before using it for the first time.
2. Attach the desired guide comb to the clipper blade.
3. Select the appropriate length setting for your haircut.
4. Turn on the device and start cutting your hair in an upward motion, starting from the bottom and moving towards the top of your head.
5. After finishing with the clipper, use the precision trimmer to detail your hairline, sideburns, and beard.

Care & Cleaning

TAPER LEVER

1. Your clipper has an adjustable taper lever, it is conveniently located near your thumb (if you are right handed), and so it can easily be adjusted while the clipper is in your hand.
2. The taper lever adds versatility to your clipper by allowing you to gradually change the closeness of your cut without a guide comb. When the lever is in the uppermost position, the blades will give you the closest cut and leave the hair very short. Pushing the lever downward gradually increases the cutting length. In its lowest position, the taper lever will leave the hair approximately the same length as the 1/8 inch guide comb.
3. The taper lever will also extend the use of your blades since  a different cutting edge is used in each setting. In addition, if extremely heavy haircutting has jammed the blades, it will help you remove hair that has become wedged between the two blades. While the clipper is running, rapidly move the lever from close cut to longer cut a couple of times. Doing this each time you’ve finished using your clipper will help keep the blades clear of cut hair. If your clipper stops cutting and this does not help, your cutting blades must be blunt. Either replace them or return to Wahl for sharpening.

OIL

The blades of your new clipper should be oiled every few haircuts. Simply place a few drops of Wahl Clipper Oil on the teeth of the blades. Use only one drop on the detail trimmer blades. Use only Wahl Clipper Oil included in this kit. Due to the high speed of your clipper the correct type of oil must be used. Do not use hair oil, grease or any oil mixed with kerosene or any solvent, as the solvent will evaporate and leave the thick oil, slowing down the blades. Wahl Clipper Oil is a very thin, natural oil which will not evaporate and not slow down the blades.

CORD

The cord should not be used to pull the clipper. Since freedom of movement needs to be maintained, care should be used to keep the cord untwisted and unobstructed. When stored, the cord should 
be coiled and the unit placed in original box or storage case. Do not change the plug in anyway.

POWER SCREW

• Your clipper has a power screw and it has been adjusted for peak efficiency before leaving the factory. However, if your voltage in your home is low, you may need to adjust it.
• To adjust, turn your clipper to ON. Use the end of the cleaning brush, a screw driver or coin to turn the power screw in a clockwise direction until you hear a noise. 
• Then slowly turn the power screw out (counter clockwise), just until noise stops and then an additional half turn. This is the maximum power setting.
