Cleaning the Trimmer Heads and Nose Trimmer

To ensure optimal trimming efficiency, the trimmer attachments must be cleaned regularly.

IMPORTANT: Do Not use flammable liquids, chemicals, abrasive creams, steel wool or scouring pads for cleaning.

The easiest way to clean the trimmer is to brush off the hairs with the small cleaning brush.

For a deeper clean use gently running water to wash away the hairs whilst brushing with the small brush.

After cleaning, thoroughly dry the attachments and trimmer with a dry cloth then lubricate the cutting blades. Refer to the section on “Lubrication”.

Cleaning the Combs
The Combs can be cleaned using mild detergent and warm water. Rinse off in clean water and dry thoroughly before use.

Lubrication

The Hair Trimmer Attachments will need periodic lubrication to allow the blades to run smoothly.

Use a drop of sewing machine oil every few months of use directly onto the trimming blades or after every time the blades are cleaned with water.
