Grooming Tips
HAIR:
- Should be dry and free of lotions or other liquids.
- Comb outward to obtain maximum height / length and facing in the same direction.
BEARD / MUSTACHE:
- Use small comb to straighten hairs for trimming.
- When TRIMMING, first select desired Trimmer Attachment. Starting under chin, follow the jaw line back toward ear. Trim in multiple directions to capture all stray hairs.
- When THINNING or TAPERING, use a small comb to hold beard in place. In opposite hand, hold Groomer with cutting system facing outward while slowly moving Trimmer along length of comb. The Adjustable Comb Attachment can also be used to achieve desired look.
FOIL SHAVER:
- Use the Foil Shaver attachment to clean-up detailed areas. For best results, avoid holding at an angle.
EARS:
- When trimming inner ears, avoid inserting Grooming System more than 1/4″ into ear canal.
- Rotate Grooming System in a circular motion while gently moving in and out of ear canal.
EYEBROWS:
- Guide cutting edges to stray hairs along eyebrows.
- For best results, do not use the grooming system to define entire eyebrow.
NAPE OF NECK:
- Using a hand-held mirror is necessary if self-trimming.
- Lift hair off neck, using index finger to cover & protect hairs NOT needing trimming.
- Carefully touch cutting blade to neck, slowly moving the groomer in an upward direction until stopped by index finger.
NOSE:
- Carefully insert groomer no more than 1/4″ into nostril.
- Rotate Grooming System in a circular motion while gently moving in and out of the nose.
BACK AND BODY:
- The Vertical Trimmer is designed to quickly trim hair over large areas such as the chest and back. Using the Vertical Trimmer withe handle extended is ideal for trimming all the hair to reach areas. The Vertical Comb can be used in any of the three length settings by sliding the comb in the grooves on the trimmer or the comb can be removed for a close trim.
Cleaning, Care and Maintenance
NOTE: Always clean Grooming System attachments regularly to ensure maximum performance and a proper operating life.
CLEANING ATTACHMENTS WITH WATER
- Remove attachment.
- Rinse ONLY the attachment under warm running water. Do NOT use hot water as this might cause damage.
CLEANING ATTACHMENTS WITH BRUSH
- After first removing attachment, thoroughly brush and blow out hair clippings from cutting system, attachment, and top of power handle.
CLEANING FOIL SHAVER
(Only use the cleaning brush on the foil head when the shaver is turned off. Do NOT rinse or oil the foil shaver attachment as this is permanently lubricated.)
- Remove attachment by pressing security latches on front of foil shaver.
- Remove head, shake to remove excess clippings.
- Replace attachment by gently snapping into place.
OILING BLADES AND CAUTIONS
- Rinsing attachments under water (above) requires lubricating the cutting blades 1x monthly. Using only light-grade oils (e.g. sewing machine oil), simply spread 1-2 drops lightly over cutters with fingertip. Wipe away all excess.
- Use only light-grade oils as these will not evaporate or slow down speed of cutting blades.
- Do not use hair oil, grease, or any oil mixed with kerosene or solvent as these too will evaporate.
Troubleshooting
Q: WHAT IF THE CUTTERS DON’T MOVE WHEN TURNED ON?
A: The cutting unit may be dirty or clogged. Clean and lubricate the
groomer as described previously.
Q: WHAT IF THE GROOMER DOESN’T WORK AT ALL WHEN TURNED ON?
A: The groomer might simply need charging. Follow instructions for
charging as described previously. Should charging prove unsuccessful, contact

the U.S. or 800-268-0425 in Canada
for assistance.
Q: WHAT IF THE GROOMER FAILS TO HOLD A CHARGE?
