INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

BEFORE STARTING THE CUT

Inspect the clipper making sure that it is free from hair and dirt.
Seat the person so that their head is approximately at your eye level.
Before cutting, always comb the hair so it is tangle-free and dry.

Comb position	Short comb	Long comb
1	3 mm	24 mm
2	6 mm	27 mm
3	9 mm	30 mm
4	12 mm	33 mm
5	15 mm	36 mm
6	18 mm	39 mm
7	21 mm	42 mm

TO ATTACH A COMB

Hold the comb with its teeth upward.
Slide it onto and along the clipper blade until the front of the comb firmly sits against the clipper blade.

TO REMOVE THE COMB

Holding the clipper with the blades facing away from you, firmly push the comb upward and away from the blades.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR CUTTING HAIR

For even cutting, allow the comb attachment/blade to cut its way through the hair.
Do not force it through quickly. If you are cutting for the first time, start with the maximum comb attachment.

STEP 1 – NAPE OF THE NECK

Set the comb to 3mm or 6mm.
Hold the clipper with the blade teeth pointing upwards. Begin starting at the centre of the head at the base of the neck.
Slowly lift the clipper, working upwards and outwards through the hair, trimming just a little at a time.

STEP 2 – BACK OF THE HEAD

With the comb set at 12mm or 18mm, cut the hair at the back of the head.

STEP 3 – SIDE OF THE HEAD

Set the comb to 3mm or 6mm, trim sideburns. Then change the setting to 9mm and continue to cut the top of the head.

STEP 4 – TOP OF THE HEAD

Use the longer length comb attachment and set it to 24mm or 27mm then cut hair on top of the head against the direction in which the hair normally grows.
For longer hair on top, use the longer length comb attachment (24 – 42mm) to achieve the desired style.
Always work from the back of the head.

STEP 5 – THE FINISHING TOUCHES

Use the clipper without an attachment comb for close trimming around the base and sides of the neck.
To produce a clean straight line at the sideburns, reverse the hair clipper. Place the reversed clipper at right angles to the head, tips of the blades lightly touching the skin and then work downwards.

SHORT TAPERED STYLES – “FLAT TOPS” & SHORT CUTS

Starting with the longest guide comb attached (24 – 42mm), cut from the back of the neck to the crown. Hold the guide comb flat against the head and slowly move the clipper through the hair.
Use the same procedure from the lower side to the upper side of the head. Then cut the hair against the direction in which it grows and levels with the sides.
To give a “flat-top” look, the hair on top of the head must be cut over the top of a flat comb.
Use a closer guide comb to taper the hair down to the neckline as desired.

CARE FOR YOUR HAIR CLIPPER

Your clipper is fitted with high-quality blades. To ensure the long-lasting performance of your clipper, clean the blades and unit regularly. Always keep the attachment guide comb on the trimmer blade.
AFTER EACH USE

Ensure the clipper is switched off and disconnected from the mains before cleaning.
Brush the accumulated hair from the blades. Do not submerge the clipper in water.
To clean the unit, wipe with a damp cloth and dry immediately.

EVERY SIX MONTHS

At regular intervals, the blade set should be removed and cleaned.
Remove the 2 screws retaining the fixed blade with a screwdriver. Do not remove the blade set.
Brush out hairs from between the blades with a soft cleaning brush. Do not remove the lubricating grease from the blades. It is not necessary to remove the small moving blade from the unit.
If the moving blade has been removed this can be re-fitted by slotting the coated blade holder over the pin in the centre of the interior product head. The groove on the coated blade, just below the teeth, rests on a metal plate on the opposite side to the screw holes. The fixed blade is fitted with the raised profile pointing outwards and fixed with the 2 screws.
Note that if the blades are not correctly aligned then cutting efficiency will be impaired.
Place a few drops of cutter or sewing machine oil onto the blades. Wipe off excess oil.

CLEANING CAUTIONS

Only the attachment guide combs and trimmer blade may be removed from the product for cleaning.
Cleaning should be done with a soft brush, such as the brush supplied with the product.
Do not rinse underwater.
Do not use harsh or corrosive cleaners on the units or their blades.
Ensure the appliance is switched off and unplug from the main outlet before cleaning.

BATTERY REMOVAL

The battery must be removed from the appliance before it is scrapped.
The appliance must be disconnected from the supply mains when removing the battery.
Ensure that the clipper is discharged of all power and disconnected from the mains
Lift or pry the USB port cover plate on the bottom of the clipper.
Lift or pry the deco plate on the lower portion of the clipper and unscrew 1 screw located on the back housing of the clipper.
Lift or pry the clipper halves apart, exposing the battery chamber.
