Trimming Length with XL Length Adjustable Comb

Zoom Wheel and Removable Adjustable Combs
NOTE: The Adjustable Combs must be attached to the trimmer in order to use the Zoom Wheel.

• To adjust, roll the Zoom Wheel toward the top of the trimmer for a longer length, and toward the bottom of the trimmer for a shorter length.  The wheel will click into one of nine positions.
•  Begin trimming at one of the longest settings 8 or 9 to avoid accidentally trimming hair too short. As you become familiar with the settings, you can then select your desired length setting.
• Remove Adjustable Combs if you are: defining hairline edges such as sideburns, trimming the nape of your neck, trimming your beard line on the front of the neck, or if you want to clean cutter assembly.
• To remove the comb, with the adjustable zoom wheelset to 1, pull the comb off the beard trimmer.

NOTE: The Adjustable Combs can only be placed on the trimmer one way; if a comb does not fit properly, remove and reverse it.

How to Use

Creating the “Stubble Look”

•  For a precision stubble look, attach the stubble blade and the adjustable stubble comb which can trim the hair between 1 to 5mm.
• Please note that the adjustable zoom wheel does not increase the length settings on the stubble comb. To adjust this length settings, turn the  dial found on the back of the stubble comb which will then indicate the different trimming lengths to choose from.

To Thin And Taper The Beard/ Moustache

•  Turn the unit on.
• Make sure the short-length adjustable comb and beard blade are on. Place the flat top of the short-length adjustable comb against the skin.
• Slowly slide the trimmer through the hair. Repeat from different directions as necessary.
•  If hair builds up in the trimmer comb during the trimming process, switch the unit off, pull off the comb and brush off.

Detailing

• To create sharp lines around your beard, remove the adjustable comb from the trimmer, then press the popup trimmer release button.
•  Start with the edge of the beard/mustache line and gently lower the trimmer blade onto your skin.

Trimming Beards

•  Before you begin, comb your hair in the direction that it grows so that the hairs are at their maximum height and facing in the same direction.
• Determine how much hair you want to cut and position the hair length selector accordingly. Remember, until you are familiar with using the trimmer, it is always better to select a longer hair setting initially in order not to trim too much hair.

Trimming and Styling ShorterBeards

• Make sure the short-length adjustable comb and beard blade are on.
• Turn the trimmer so the front of the cutting unit (zoom wheel side) is facing away from you.
•  Start trimming under your chin and, following your jawbone line, work toward your ear and upper beard line using an upward motion. All other short-length adjustable combs follow the contours of your face. You may trim either against or with the direction of beard growth, whichever is preferred.

Trimming and Styling Longer Beards

• To take out the volume from your beard or if you want to take down the length significantly, select your desired length setting on the XL comb  (please see the table for trimming length settings). Place the flat top of the trimmer comb against the skin. Slowly slide through the hair. Repeat from different directions as necessary.
• If hair builds up in the trimmer comb during the trimming process, switch the unit off, pull off the comb and brush the hair off.

To Define the Beard Line

•  Remove comb.
• Hold trimmer vertically with cutting blades facing you.
• Start with the edge of the beard line. With the cutting blades resting lightly against your skin, use motions towards the edge of the beard line to trim to the desired location in the facial area and away from the beard in the neck area.
• For trimming in tight spots or small areas attach Goatee Blade. To Trim Sideburns
•  Comb sideburns following the direction of your hair growth.
•  Be certain short-length adjustable comb attachment is on.
• Hold trimmer vertically with the front of the trimmer facing you.
• Trim sideburns using a downward motion.

Trimming the Nape of Your Neck

• You will need a hand mirror for this operation if performing it alone. The mirror is not necessary if trimming is performed by a second person.
•  Make sure stubble blade and comb are attached.
•  Use your fingers to lift the hair at the base of your head up off the neck. Your index finger should be covering the roots of the hairs you are lifting to prevent accidental removal by the trimmer.
• Using your other hand, hold the trimmer horizontally to the base of your neck with the cutting unit facing up, and move the trimmer along the length of the neck until the unit touches your finger covering the hair roots at the base of your head. Repeat this procedure for the entire area of the neck. Be sure to move the unit slowly when performing this operation and to keep the hair roots at the base of your head out of the way of the trimmer.
• Use the hand mirror to inspect the results of the operation and ensure all hairs along the nape of the neck have been trimmed.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Cleaning and Maintaining Your Trimmer
Clean your trimmer regularly to ensure that the unit’s operating life is not prematurely shortened.

• Unplug the adapter from the wall outlet and ensure that your trimmer is turned off.
•  Do not use liquid cleaners on the cutters or harsh or corrosive chemicals on the unit’s main body.
•  Remove adjustable comb. Tap or blow out any excess hairs that may be on the comb.
• Use a cleaning brush to brush away excess hair clippings from trimmer blade.
• The removable blades can be rinsed under water (do not rinse the main trimmer body). Rinse the blade under warm running water for several seconds, making sure hair debris is removed from the blade. Dry any excess water that may be on the blade before reattaching. See “Quick Release  Blades” for information on detaching and reattaching blade assembly. Do not rinse the trimmer body underwater.
•  If the blade is rinsed, we recommend adding to the blade 1 or 2 drops of sewing machine oil or any standard hair clipper oil.

Troubleshooting

The trimmer does not work when turned on:

• Charge the trimmer for 24 hours. Trimmer cutters do not move:
•  The cutting unit may be dirty and clogged. Clean the unit as directed in the Cleaning and Maintenance section.

Trimmer does not hold charge:

•  Fully discharge the battery by running trimmer until it stops; then follow recharging instructions (see section on “Operating Your Trimmer”).
