INSTRUCTIONS FOR CUTTING HAIR
• 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 rst time, start with the
maximum comb attachment.
STEP 1 – NAPE OF THE NECK
• Set the comb to 3 mm or 6 mm.
• 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
• With the comb set at 9 mm or 12 mm, cut the hair at the back of the head.
STEP 3 – SIDE OF THE HEAD
• With the comb set at 9 mm or 12 mm, trim sideburns.

6
STEP 4 – TOP OF THE HEAD
• Use the longer length comb attachment and set it to 30 mm then cut hair on top of
the head against the direction in which the hair normally grows.
• Always work from the back of the head.
STEP 5 – THE FINISHING TOUCHES
• Use the clipper without an attachment comb for close trimming around the base
and sides 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.
CARE FOR YOUR HAIRCLIPPER
• Your clipper is tted with high quality blades.
• To ensure long lasting performance of your clipper, clean the blades and unit
regularly.

EVERY SIX MONTHS

the hair clipper is facing you.
• Place your thumb of the opposite hand underneath the blades at the front of the
unit, hold the back of the blade set with your fore nger and middle nger and
rmly press upwards with your thumb. The blade set will detach from the hair
clipper.
