• Remove the blade guard and switch the appliance on.

Clipping
For an all over even cut:

• Switch the clipper on and the blades will start to move.
• Starting at the nape of the neck, hold the clipper with the teeth of the clipper pointing upwards, ensuring that the comb guide is resting flat against the head.
• Slowly move the clipper upwards and outwards through the hair towards your crown, against the direction of the hair growth. The comb guide will help to lift the hair while the blades cut the hair at the desired length.
• Once the desired length is achieved at the back of the hair, start clipping the top and sides.
• Hold the clipper to the front of your hair with the teeth pointing towards the back of your head and move the clipper towards your crown. Repeat if necessary, moving in rows from the front and the sides of your head to the back.

• Switch the clipper on and the blades will start to move.
• Hold the clipper to the front of your hair with the teeth pointing towards the back of your head and move the clipper towards your crown. Repeat as necessary, moving in rows from the front and the sides of your head to the back.
• If you wish to take the back and sides of your hair to a shorter length, switch off the appliance and attach a shorter comb guide.

• Repeat on the sides of the hair, starting with the teeth of the clipper pointing upwards and comb guide flat against the area above the ear, again moving the clipper upwards and outwards.

Outlining:

• Hold the appliance upside down, so the front of the clipper is facing towards your head.
