SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
-
Before using the clipper for the first time, charge continuously for 3 hours.
Maximum battery capacity will only be reached after 3 charging and discharging cycles. -
Make sure the switch on the clipper is in the OFF position. Connect the charging jack into the receptacle on the bottom of the clipper. Plug the adapter into any electrical outlet (at the voltage listed on the label affixed to the adapter). The charging indicator
will light up blue to indicate that the charging has begun. Charging is complete after 3 hours. -
The adapter may become warm while charging. This is normal.
-
Preserving the batteries: In order to maintain the optimum capacity of the rechargeable batteries, the clipper should be recharged for 3 hours approximately every 6 months.
-
Make sure the switch is in the OFF position when the clipper is not operating.
-
If the charging light starts to flash rapidly (more than 4 flashes per second) then the appliance is faulty. If this happens then please stop charging and remove the adapter from the mains and contact an authorized Service Center.
FOR DIRECT PLUG-IN OPERATION
Make sure clipper is off. Connect charging jack into the receptacle at the end
of clipper and plug the adapter into power outlet.
ON/OFF SWITCH
To operate, simply slide switch to ON (marked ” I”). To stop operation, set to
the OFF (marked “º “) position.
VERY IMPORTANT: Blades must be cleaned and oiled on a regular basis for proper
functioning. Failure to regularly clean and oil the blades will void the
warranty.
USER MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
MAINTENANCE OF THE BLADE
Always apply oil to the blades before and after use. This will ensure maximum
cutting performance and proper maintenance. Hold the clipper away from your
body in a downward position, and apply a drop of BabylissPro lubricating oil
on the front and sides of the cutter blade. Wipe off excess oil with a soft,
dry cloth. Do not pull, twist, or wrap the supply cord around the appliance.
HOW TO USE COMB ATTACHMENTS
To use the comb attachments, turn the clipper to “ ” position. Slide the comb
attachment onto the top of the clipper blade, and then pull down and over the
back of the blade. To remove, pull up on the back of the comb attachment and
then pull away from the blade.
REPLACEMENT (REMOVAL) OF BLADE SET
Step 1. Unplug the unit and adjust the taper (see illustration A).
Step 2. Remove the screws and the fixed blade. Save the screws.
Step 3. Lift off the small moving blade and replace it with the new one on the
plastic oscillator (see illustration B).
Step 4. Replace the fixed blade using the screws and lightly tighten them.
Adjust the teeth as shown in illustration C, to a gap of 1/32″ (1 mm) to 1/16″
(1.5 mm), and the small, moving blade as centered and parallel as possible to
the fixed blade’s teeth.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
The top edge of the fixed blade must be a minimum of 1/32″ (1 mm) higher than
the top edge of the moving blade, as centered as possible. This is important
so that the moving blade does not come in contact with the skin.
Be sure to add a few drops of BabylissPro lubricating oil to the blades before
running.
Don’t forget to tighten the screws after the blades have been aligned.
ADJUSTABLE TAPER LEVER
The taper lever is positioned at your thumb. You can hold the clipper in your
hand and adjust the lever at the same time – while you are clipping.
The taper lever adjusts the closeness of the cut from a close cut with the
taper lever in the up position, to a longer length cut with the taper lever in
the down position. To increase cutting length, slowly push the lever down. To
cut closer, push the lever up. As different cutting edges are used in each
setting, using the taper lever lengthens the life of the clipper blades. Too
much hair can slow down hair clippers. Keep the clipper on for removing hair.
Then push the taper lever back and forth quickly for several times. If you do
this every time, especially after much hair cutting, the clipper blades should
remain free of cut hair. Oil the blades after the above procedures.

WARNING:
IF YOU THINK THE POWER IS OFF WHEN THE SWITCH IS OFF, YOU’RE WRONG.
