Blades (1)

• The blades (1) are consumables and they are not covered by the warranty.
• The consumer should check the condition of the cutting edges of the blades by themselves, as the sharpening (polishing) of cutting edges is not covered by warranty.
• If the blades (1) have been removed for cleaning or replacement, install them back, adjust and tighten the fastening screws.

Blade shifter (2)

• When you cut hair without using attachments (5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10), you can shift the blade to adjust the cutting length (pic. 3).
• In the upper shifter (2) position haircut will be the shortest.
• In the lower shifter (2) position, the cutting length is approximately the same as when using 4-6 mm attachment comb (5).
• By changing the position of the shifter (2) while cutting hair, you can select the necessary cutting length.
• If hair is jammed in the blades (1) while cutting, move the shifter (2) from the upper position to the lower position or vice versa several times, this will help to release the jammed hair without removing the blades (1).
• When the hair clipper is switched on, move the shifter (2) several times from the upper position to the lower position or vice versa, this way you can remove the cut-off hair from the blades (1).
• If the hair clipper pulls hair while cutting, it means that the blades (1) became blunt, replace them with new ones.

Lubricating oil

• Before the first use check whether the blades (1) are lubricated, and, if necessary, lubricate them with the oil (11) supplied with the unit. Keep the blades (1) clean and lubricated.
• Do not use vegetable oil or oil with solvents. Solvents are subjected to evaporation, and the remaining thick oil can slow down the upper blade (1) moving speed.

HAIR STYLING INSTRUCTIONS

Before every use of the hair clipper always clean the blades (1) off hair, dust or any foreign inclusion, lubricate the blades (1) and check their adjustment.

• Hair should be clean and dry during hair cutting.
• Unwind the power adapter (14) cord to its full length.
• Insert the power plug into the mains socket.
• Before cutting hair switch the hair clipper on by setting the switch (4) to the upper position, the LED display (13) will light up on the unit body, indicating the clipper charging level in %. Upper value – charging level %, bottom value – remaining battery %. Make sure that the hair clipper operates normally and the blades (1) move smoothly. If there is excess oil on the blades (1), switch the hair clipper off moving the power switch (4) to the lower position and remove the excessive oil with a dry cloth.
• Constantly check the power cord, prevent it from multiple twisting, regularly switch the unit off and straighten the power cord.
• Seat a person so that his/her head is approximately at your eye level, cover the person’s shoulders with a towel and set hair with the comb.

Reminder

• Cut off a small amount of hair at a time – if necessary you can always return to the cut area of hair again for additional cutting.
• The best haircutting results are reached on dry hair, not wet.
• Comb the hair with a comb to reveal uneven locks.
• It is better to leave longer hair after cutting for the first time.
• After learning your clipper better, you will be able to arrange your hair in any style you need.

Attachment combs
The cut-off hair length depends on the attachment comb:

• attachment comb (5): length of hair left 4-6 mm;
•  attachment comb (6): length of hair left 7-9 mm;
• attachment comb (7): length of hair left 10-12 mm;
• attachment comb (8): length of hair left 16-18 mm;
•  attachment comb (9): length of hair left 22-24 mm;
• attachment comb (10): length of hair left 28-30 mm.

Install the selected attachment comb on the blades, teeth up, and press on the ledge in the bottom part of the attachment until locking. Before cutting hair make sure that the attachment is locked on its installation place.
To remove the attachment comb press the clamp and remove the attachment.
Step one
Install the attachment comb (5) or (6) (pic. 1).
Switch the hair clipper on using the power switch (4), setting it to the upper position. Hold the hair clipper with the blades (1) pointed upwards. Start cutting from the hair growth edge. Slowly move the hair clipper upwards.
This way cut all hair at the bottom of the back of the head and near the ears.
Step two
Switch the hair clipper off with the power switch (4) by setting it to the lower position, unplug the unit, then set the attachment comb (7, 8, 9) or (10) for longer hair and continue cutting hair near top of the head.
Step 3 – cutting in the temples area
Switch the hair clipper off and unplug it, then set the attachment comb (5) or attachment comb (6) and cut hair in the area of temples. Then set the 9 mm attachment comb (7, 8, 9) or attachment comb (10) and continue cutting towards the top of the head.
Step 4 – cutting the crown of the head
Using the attachment comb (7, 8, 9) or attachment comb (10), cut the hair on the top of the head towards the crown against the hair growth direction.

• You can cut hair against and along the direction of hair growth, but keep in mind that the hair cut against the growth will be shorter than the hair cut along the growth.
• Use the attachment comb (5) and attachment comb (6) for very short haircut. To leave a little longer hair, use the attachment comb (7, 8, 9) or attachment comb (10).
• To leave longer hair, grip hair locks between your fingers and cut the hair off using the clipper.
• You may use a comb: lift the hair locks and cut them with the hair clipper above the comb.
• Always start cutting from the head back.
• Comb the hair with a comb to reveal uneven locks.
• Use the scissors to make haircut even.

Step 5 – the final part

• In the final stage of hair cutting remove the attachment comb from the unit (pic. 2), turn the blades (1) of the clipper towards the hair and trim hair on the temples and neck carefully. Do not press the clipper strongly, there is danger of injuries or cuts when  pen blades (1) come in contact with skin.

Cone-shaped haircut
Set the necessary attachment comb and start cutting from the head back towards the crown. Cut the hair against the direction of the growth, towards the crown, and from the sides. To get a flat top haircut, use the comb: lift the locks and cut them along the comb. Comb the hair to reveal uneven locks.
After cutting your hair, switch the hair clipper off by setting the switch (4) to the lower position and unplug it.
