ABOUT YOUR HAIR CLIPPER
HC5850AU SPECIFICATIONS
Power System Cord
Voltage Type Single 220 - 240 VAC, 50/60 Hz
GETTING STARTED
1. Make sure your clipper is operating correctly. Inspect the hair clipper making
sure that it is free from hair and dirt.
2. Place a cape around the neck of the person whose hair is being
trimmed or cut.
3. Seat the person so that their head is approximately at your eye level.
4. Before cutting, always comb the hair so it is tangle free and dry.
5. Hold the hair clipper in the palm of one hand and with your thumb resting
firmly on the top of the hair clipper. This grip provides comfortable cutting
control.
TO ATTACH TRIMMING GUIDES
1. Select an appropriate length trimming guide to match the desired length of hair
to remain after the cut. The trimming guides are numbered and marked with
3mm, 6mm, 9mm, 12mm, 16mm, 18mm, 22mm and 25mm.
2. Hold comb with teeth up, slide the attachment firmly onto the
bottom clipper blade.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR HAIR CUTTING
NOTE: For even cutting, allow the guide comb/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 guide comb, until you
know how short you would like your hair to be.
NOTE: The comb guide lengths described for use in the steps
below are an example only, if you want a longer or shorter hair
cut you will need to adjust the comb guide lengths to suit your
requirements.
STEP 1 - NAPE OF THE NECK
a. Use 3mm or 6mm guide comb.
b. Hold the hair clipper with the blade teeth pointing upwards. Begin starting at
the centre of the head at the base of the neck.
c. Slowly lift the hair clipper, working upwards and outwards through the hair,
trimming just a little at a time.
STEP 2 - BACK AND SIDE OF THE HEAD
With the 9mm or 12mm guide comb, cut the hair at the back of the head.
STEP 3 - SIDE OF THE HEAD
a. With the 9mm or 12mm guide comb, trim sideburns.
b. Then change to the longer 22mm guide comb and continue to cut to the top of
the head.
STEP 4 - TOP OF THE HEAD
a. Using the 25mm guide comb, cut the hair on top of the head against the
direction in which the hair normally grows.
b. For longer hair on top, use scissors. Lift the hair on top of the head with your
fingers. Cut the hair between your fingers to the desired length.
c. Always work from the back of the head.
STEP 5 - THE FINISHING TOUCHES
a. Use the hair clipper without an attachment comb for close trimming around the
base and sides of the neck.
b. To produce a clean straight line at the sideburns, reverse the clipper. Place the
reversed hair clipper at right angles to the head, tips of the blades lightly
touching the skin and then work downwards.

the clipper cavity and pushing the blade set towards the clipper body. You will
hear a “click” when blades are locked into place.
tAdd oil, place a few drops of sewing machine oil onto the blades after rinsing
with water.
Note: Ensure that the hair clipper is turned off and unplug from power outlet
when cleaning.
