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wishtotrim.Remember,until
youarefamiliarwithusingthetrimmer,itisbettertoselecta
longer hair length setting in order not to trim too much hair.
• Turnthetrimmer’spowerswitchONandbegintrimming.
• Starttrimmingunderyourchin,andfollowingyourjawbone
line.Trimhairsusingadownwardmotionfollowingthe
directionofyourhairgrowthortrimagainstyourhairgrowth,
whicheverispreferred.Worktowardyourearandupperbeard
lineusinganupwardmotion.Allowthehairlengthattachment
to follow the contour of your face.
• Whenfinishedtrimming,turnthepowertoOFF.
To Define the Beard Line
• Startwiththeedgeofthebeardlineandwiththecutting
bladesrestinglightlyagainstyourskin.Usedownward
motionstowardstheedgeofthebeardlinetotrimthe
beardlinetothedesiredshapeinthefacialareasand
around the neck.

yourhairgrowthortrimagainstyourhairgrowth,whichever
is preferred.
NOTE:Sinceallhairsdonotgrowinthesamedirection,youmay
wanttotrydifferenttrimmingmethods(i.e.upwards,downwards
oracross).Practiceisbestforoptimumresults.
• Afterachievingthedesiredlength,useadownwardmotion
toblendmoustachehairs.
• Whenfinishedtrimming,turnthepowertoOFF.
NOTE: Useslowlightpressure.Toomuchpressuremaytrimoff
more hair than desired.

• Holdthetrimmerverticallywitheitherofthetrimmerblades
facing you.
• Trimsideburnsusingadownwardmotion.

it alone.
• Beforeyoubegin,removetheattachablecombs.
• 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tothebaseofyour
neckwiththecuttingunitfacingup,andmovethepersonal
trimmer up the length of the neck until it touches your finger
