DESCRIPTION

ACCESSORY COMBS

OPERATION

Blade alignment

• The trimmer is checked carefully in the factory before delivery with regard to the alignment and lubrication of the cutting blades.
• However, the blades must be aligned every time after it has been dismantled for cleaning or replacement.
• Align the blades so that the upper blade’s teeth are approximately 1.2 mm behind the lower blade (fig. 1).
• If the alignment of the cutting blades is incorrect, apply a few drops of oil to the blades and operate the machine for a few seconds. Then turn off the machine and disconnect it from the mains supply. Undo the screws a little (fig. 2) and align the blades. Tighten the screws again.

Lubrication

• To keep the machine in top condition, the cutting blades must be oiled at short intervals when working (fig. 3).
• Only use the oil supplied – do not use hair oil, grease, oil mixed with paraffin or any solvents. Such products evaporate and leave behind a thick coating of oil on the blades, causing the machine to run slowly.

Blade adjustment lever

• With this adjustment lever you can easily regulate the machine with your right thumb while the machine is in use.
• Using the lever, you can gradually change the cutting length without having to use a comb.
• With the lever in the highest position (fig. 4) you obtain the shortest cutting length. This cuts the hair very short. By gradually moving the lever down, the cutting length is gradually increased to a corresponding extent.
• In the lowest position, the machine cuts the hair to a length equivalent to a number 1 comb (3 mm).
• The adjustment lever also extends the use of the cutting blades, as different cutting edges are used for the different settings.
• You can also use the adjustment lever to remove very thick hair that catches between the two cutting blades, without needing to dismantle the blades. While the machine is running, move the adjustment lever rapidly from the lowest position to the highest a few times. Do this after each use to keep the cutting blades free from cut hair.
• If the machine stops cutting or does not cut well, and the above action does not rectify the problem, the blades have become worn and therefore need to be replaced.

Preparation

1. Inspect the machine and check that there is no oil between the cutting blades’ teeth. Turn on the machine to distribute the oil. Check that the machine is working evenly without jamming. Wipe off surplus oil. This must be done each time after use. Keep an eye on the power cord to ensure it does not become entangled while working.
2. Position the person whose hair is to be cut so that their head is roughly level with your eyes. This gives you a good view of the head and the machine is easy to operate.
3. Comb the hair to remove any tangles.
4. Place a towel around the person’s neck and over their shoulders.

Cutting

• Cutting hair requires practice and experience. It is therefore advisable to allow the hair to grow a little longer the first few times you cut it, until you are accustomed to how much each accessory comb cuts.
• Cut the hair with slow, relaxed movements. Use short movements to gradually cut the entire head.
• Only cut off a little hair at a time. You can always trim off more hair afterwards if necessary.
• While working, comb the hair frequently back to the style you want to cut.
• It is easier to cut dry rather than wet hair with this machine. It is then much easier to see how much hair has been cut off.

Accessory combs (see Accessories)

• Accessory comb no. 1 cuts the hair to a length of 3 mm.

• Accessory comb no. 2 cuts the hair to a length of 6 mm.

• Accessory comb no. 3 cuts the hair to a length of 9 mm.

• Accessory comb no. 4 cuts the hair to a length of 12 mm.
  Each accessory comb is marked on the outside with the number of mm.

• In order to fit a comb, hold it with the teeth facing up and slide it on along the cutting blade until the front of the comb is properly in contact with the blade.

• To remove a comb, simply pull it up and away from the cutting blade.

• For an even cut, allow the comb/cutting blade to do the work. Let them cut through the hair. Do not force the machine quickly through the hair. Remember to comb the hair frequently to remove cut hair and release uneven long strands of hair.

Step 1 – back of the neck

1. Fit the “3 mm” or “6 mm” accessory comb.
2. Hold the machine pointing up and start cutting in the middle at the base of the back of the neck (fig. 5).
3. Hold the machine so that is fits comfortably in the hand. Hold it gently against the head with the teeth pointing up. Lift the machine gradually and slowly, and work upwards and outwards through the hair so that you only cut a little hair at a time.
4. While cutting, lift the machine gradually towards you. Continue to cut the rear area from the bottom edge of the back of the neck up to the ears.

Step 2 – back of the head
Change to one of the longer accessory combs, “9 mm” or “12 mm”, and cut the hair on the back of the head (fig. 6).

Step 3 – sides of the head
Change to one of the shorter combs, “3 mm” or “6 mm”, and trim the sideburns, i.e. the hair directly in front of the ears. Then change to one of the longer accessory combs and continue cutting up towards the top of the head (fig. 7).

Step 4 – top of the head

1. Use one of the longer accessory combs and cut the hair on the top of the head, from the back towards the front, against the hair’s normal direction of growth (fig. 8). In some cases, this may mean you need to cut from the front towards the back.
2. Use the shorter accessory combs to achieve a shorter hair length.
3. To achieve longer hair on top of the head, use the enclosed comb and lift up the hair. Cut the hair above the comb or hold the hair between your fingers and cut to the desired length (fig. 9 and 10). Always work from the back of the head. You can gradually cut the hair shorter by reducing the distance between the comb/your fingers and the head. Comb out the hair to release unevenly long hairs.

Step 5 – finish

1. To finish, use the machine without any accessory combs to trim close to the skin around the base and sides of the neck and around the ears.
2. To create a straight hairline at the sideburns, turn the machine as illustrated in fig. 11.
3. Hold the machine at right angles against the head, so that the tips of the cutting blades are just touching the skin, and work down. In this way you achieve the same type of cut as when using a razorblade.

Short hairstyles – straight top edge on the head and decreasing hair length

1. Start with the longest accessory comb (12 mm) and cut from the back of the neck towards the top of the head. Hold the accessory comb flat against the head and move the machine slowly through the hair (fig. 12).

2. Perform the same procedure from the lower part of the side of the head towards the top, as illustrated. Then cut the hair against its direction of growth from the front towards the top, and then even out the cut towards the sides.

3. To cut the hair at the top with a straight top edge, the hair on top of the head must be cut with a flat comb instead of an accessory comb.

4. Use the shorter accessory combs to shorten the hair in the desired manner down towards the neckline. Comb the hair and inspect the cut for uneven areas and contours at the sideburns, as described earlier.
