Cutting hair

Note: The hair to be dressed must be dry. The cutting length may deviate depending on the cutting angle. Place a sheet or cape around the throat and neck to prevent cut-off hair from dropping into the collar. Comb the hair well with the included barber comb 22. First, start with a comb attachment 2 with a longer cutting length, and then, in the course of the cutting process, use shorter cutting lengths step by step. With the comb attachment with dial 3, you also start with a longer cutting length.

Turn the dial anticlockwise to shorten the cutting length and clockwise to lengthen it. (see Fig. C). Start by cutting the hair in the neck or on the sides and cut towards the center of the head. Then, cut the front section of the hair towards the center of the head. Hold the hair and beard trimmer unit 9 in such a way that the comb attachment 2 lies as flat as possible on the head. Move the hair and beard trimmer unit 9 evenly through the hair.

Hold the hair and beard trimmer unit 9 with comb attachment 3 in such a way that the flat area above the dial lies on the head (see Fig. D). Cut against the direction of hair growth. To catch all the hair, move the hair and beard trimmer unit 9 several times through each section ofthe hair. Comb the hair repeatedly and well. Using the switch for cutting length fine tuning 10 the cutting length can be slightly varied with three levels: 1/2/3 (1.8mm–0.8mm).

To achieve a straight cutting line for cutting lengths, the hair and beard trimmer unit 9 should be passed through the hair several times from different directions. Trimming a beard (Beard trimmer attachment 8 )
Note: Please note that the cutting lengths will only be achieved if the switch for cutting length fine-tuning 10 is at position 1 and the hair and beard trimmer unit 9 is held at a right angle to the skin surface. Comb the beard in the direction that it grows. Trim the beard downwards from ear to chin.

First trim one side, then the other. Comb attachment 1: Adjust the cutting length with the slider according to the desired hair length and read off the cutting length using the marking on the side of the comb attachment 1 (3/4/5/6mm) (see Fig. E). Now, shorten your beard step by step. Use the beard trimmer attachment 4 without a comb attachment 1, to cut the beard very short or to cut a moustache and hairline. Using the switch for cutting length fine- tuning 10 the cutting length can be slightly varied with three levels:1/2/3 (1.8mm–0.8mm).

Trimming the hairline
(Precision trimmer attachment 5 )
