GETTING STARTED
CHARGING YOUR HAIRCLIPPER
Before using your hair clipper for the fi rst time, charge for 14-16 hours.
Ensure the product is switched off.
Connect the charging adaptor to the product and then to the mains. The charging indica-
tor will light up.
Your clipper cannot be overcharged. However, if the product is not going to be used for an
extended period time (2-3 months), unplug it from the mains and store. Fully recharge your
hairclipper when you would like to use it again.
To preserve the life of your batteries, let them run out every six months then recharge for
14-16 hours.
CORDED USE
Connect the charging adaptor to the product and then to the mains.
CAUTION: Extended mains only use will result in the reduction of the battery life.
HOW TO USE
Before starting the cut
Inspect the clipper making sure that it is free from hair and dirt.
Seat the person so that their head is approximately at your eye level.
Before cutting, always comb the hair so it is tangle free and dry.
To attach a comb
Hold the comb with its teeth upward.
Slide it onto and along the clipper blade until the front of the comb firmly sits against the
clipper blade.
To remove the comb
Holding the clipper with the blades facing away from you, firmly push the comb upward
and away from the blades.

Each comb attachment is marked accordingly on its outside middle surface surface
(3mm, 7mm, 9mm, 12mm, 18mm, 25mm, left and right ear guide).
Replacement combs available. Model: SP254.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR HAIR CUTTING
Note: For even cutting, allow the comb attachment/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 comb attachment
STEP 1 – Nape of the neck – DIAGRAM 1
Use 3 mm or 7 mm guide comb.
Hold the clipper with the blade teeth pointing upwards. Begin starting at the centre of the
head at the base of the neck.
Slowly lift the clipper, working upwards and outwards through the hair, trimming just a
little at a time.
STEP 2 – Back of the head – DIAGRAM 2
With the 12 mm or 18 mm guide comb attached, cut the hair at the back of the head.
STEP 3 – Side of the head – DIAGRAM 3
With the 3 mm or 7 mm guide comb attached, trim sideburns. Then change to the longer
9mm guide comb and continue to cut the top of the head.
STEP 4 – Top of the head – DIAGRAM 4
With the 18 mm or 25 mm guide comb attached, cut hair on top of the head against the
direction in which the hair normally grows.
For longer hair on top, use without a guide comb. Lift the hair on top of the head with a
small hand comb. Cut over the hand comb with the hair lifted or hold the hair between
the fingers to lift it and cut it to the desired length.
Always work from the back of the head.
STEP 5 – The finishing touches – DIAGRAM 5
Use the clipper without an attachment comb for close trimming around the base and sides
of the neck. Use the ear comb guides to get a clean line around each ear. For the required
ear comb guide, angle the clipper and lightly stroke around each ear to the back of the
neck.
To produce a clean straight line at the sideburns, reverse the hair clipper. Place the
reversed clipper at right angles to the head, tips of the blades lightly touching the skin and
then work downwards.

SHORT TAPERED STYLES – “FLAT TOPS” & SHORT CUTS
Starting with the longest guide comb attached (25mm), cut from the back of the neck
to the crown. Hold the guide comb flat against the head and slowly move the clipper
through the hair, as shown. (DIAGRAM 1)
Use the same procedure from the lower side to the upper side of the head, as illustrated.
Then cut the hair against the direction in which it grows and level with the sides.
(DIAGRAM 3)
To give a “flat top” look, the hair on top of the head must be cut over the top of a flat
comb.
Use a closer guide comb to taper the hair down to the neckline as desired.
CARE FOR YOUR HAIRCLIPPER
Your clipper is fi tted with high quality titanium blades. To ensure long lasting performance
of your clipper, clean the blades and unit regularly. Always keep the protective cap on the
trimmer blade and lubricate the clipper lightly before and after cleaning.
AFTER EACH USE
Note: This product is only washable if purchased in the United Kingdom and has a three-
pin charging adaptor. Due to European legislation we are unable to offer this feature in
Western and Eastern European countries.
Ensure the clipper is switched off and disconnected from the mains.
Brush or rinse the accumulated hair from the blades. Do not submerge the clipper in
water.
Place one or two drops of oil on the blades. Turn the clipper on to distribute the oil even-
ly, wipe off any excess oil. Excess oil will cause damage to your product.
To clean the unit, wipe with a damp cloth and dry immediately.
Note: Ensure that the clipper is turned off when cleaning or applying oil.
EVERY SIX MONTHS
At regular intervals the Blade Set should be removed and cleaned.
Remove the 2 screws retaining the fixed blade with a screwdriver. Do not remove blade
set.
Brush out hairs from between the blades with soft cleaning brush. Do not remove the
lubricating grease from the blades. It is not necessary to remove the small moving blade
from the unit.

If the moving blade has been removed this can be re-fitted by slotting the long grooved
edge of the blade onto the two white plastic guide ridges and then seating the blade over
the plastic actuator bar. The fixed blade is fitted with the raised profile pointing outwards
and fixed with the 2 screws.
Before fully tightening the 2 screws, adjust the taper lever to the lower position and
align the blades so that their cutting edges are parallel to one another. Tighten the 2
screws. Note that if the blades are not correctly aligned then cutting efficiency will be
impaired.
Place a few drops of cutter or sewing machine oil onto the blades. Wipe off excess oil.
CLEANING CAUTIONS
Cleaning should only be done with a soft brush, such as the brush supplied with the
product.
Only use the light-grade oil supplied or sewing machine oil on the blades.
Do not use harsh or corrosive cleaners on the units or their blades. Do not submerge in
water as damage will occur.
Do not wrap the cord of the charging adaptor around the appliance.
