To remove the blade set:

• Make sure the trimmer is in the OFF position.
• With the power switch facing you, press the blade on the teeth and in the direction away from you until they pop out of the housing.

TO REPLACE THE BLADE SET

• Looking at the trimmer from above, you will see a notch at the back of the trimmer.
• There is a tab on the blade set on the bottom, opposite the blades. Position that tab so that it fits into the notch inside the trimmer head.
• Push the blade set down onto the trimmer head until it snaps into place.

2. Comb through your beard in the direction it grows naturally.

5. Finish upper outline across cheeks

TRIMMING YOUR BEARD

1. On the longest setting, begin trimming your beard using smooth, even strokes. Start with your side- burns and work downward toward your chin. (Never attempt to trim against the natural growth of your beard because the hair will be cut too short.)

BLENDING THE JAWLINE

Attach a jawline comb to the trimmer, hold the trimmer in an upright position and begin trimming under your jawline, using short, even strokes.
