INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
This clipper is so easy to use, but before you do anything you must
take your time to charge the unit for 16 hours before its first use.
Even if you want to use it plugged in straight from the mains, this
initial charge ensures optimum power performance to give smooth
fast cutting every time. Maximum battery capacity will only be
reached after 3 charging/discharging cycles.
CORDED USE – OPERATION WITH THE POWER CORD
IMPORTANT: Only use the mains adaptor supplied with this
appliance.
1. Ensure the clipper is switched off.
2. Connect the adaptor to the base of the clipper and plug the
adaptor into a suitable 100/240v mains socket.
3. The blue LED charging indicator light will light up when the
adaptor is correctly inserted into the appliance and connected
to the mains.
4. Wait 1 minute before switching the clipper on.
5. The clipper is now ready for use.
NOTE: The clipper should not be used for longer than 20 minutes
when operated from the mains.
CORDLESS USE – CHARGING
1. Ensure the clipper is switched off.
2. Connect the adaptor to the base of the clipper and plug the
adaptor into a suitable 100/240v mains socket.
3. The blue LED charging indicator light will light up when the
adaptor is connected to the main unit and is plugged in. Allow
the clipper to charge overnight.

4. A full charge will provide approximately 40 minutes use
5. Once the clipper is charged, unplug the adaptor from the mains
and disconnect from the appliance.
6. The appliance is now ready for use.
In order to maintain the optimum capacity of the rechargeable
batteries, the appliance has to be fully discharged every 3 months
approximately. Then recharge the appliance to full capacity, again
for 16 hours.
BEFORE USE
Always inspect the appliance before use to ensure the clipper head
is free from hair, debris, etc and is running smoothly.
OILING
IMPORTANT! It is highly recommended before each use to oil
the blades with the oil provided. This ensures optimum cutting
performance. For best performance, use on clean, dry hair that has
been combed until tangle-free. Ensure the appliance is sufficiently
charged or plugged into the mains.
Using the oil supplied with the product, unscrew the cap and cut
off the very end of the plastic tube with a pair of scissors to release
the oil.
To oil the blades ensure the unit is switched on. Gently squeeze the
oil tube and apply 2 drops of oil onto the blades. Leave the unit
on for a further few seconds to allow the oil to thoroughly spread
across the length of the blades. Switch off the unit and remove any
excess oil by gently dabbing with a cloth.

COMB GUIDES
The appliance is supplied with a left and right ear comb guide and 8
hair comb guides. The comb guides are marked with the following
grade number:
Cutting Length Grade
3mm #1
6mm #2
9.5mm #3
13mm #4
16mm #5
19mm #6
22mm #7
25mm #8
• To attach a comb guide, ensure the appliance is switched off.
Position the comb guide over the front of the clipper blade and
slide over the head. Push and click the rear of the comb guide into
position.
• To remove the comb guide, ensure the appliance is switched off.
Push the tab on the rear of the comb guide away from the head
and lift off.

• To attach the ear comb guides, choose either the left or right
guide depending on which ear you are cutting above. Angle the
clipper and gently stroke around the ear towards the back of the
neck.
FINE ADJUSTMENT TAPER LEVER
The adjustable taper lever enables the cutting length to be adjusted
between grade lengths.
• To increase the cutting length, push the lever down.
• To reduce the cutting length, push the lever up.
CLIPPING
For an all over even cut:
• Attach a comb guide as required – your clipper is supplied with 8
comb guides (grades 1-8). Each comb guide is labelled.
• Switch the clipper on and the blades will start to move.
• Starting at the nape of the neck, hold the clipper with the teeth
of the clipper pointing upwards, ensuring that the comb guide is
resting flat against the head.
• Slowly move the clipper upwards and outwards through the hair
towards your crown, against the direction of the hair growth. The
comb guide will help to lift the hair and the blades will cut the
hair at the desired length.
• Once the desired length is achieved at the back of the hair, start
clipping the top and sides.
• Hold the clipper to the front of your hair with the teeth pointing
towards the back of your head, and move the clipper towards
your crown. Repeat as necessary, moving in rows from the front
and the sides of your head to the back.
• You should achieve an even length cut all over your head.

For a shorter back and sides, with length on the top:
• Attach the longer comb guide as required for the top of your hair
– your clipper is supplied with 8 comb guides (grades 1-8). Each
comb guide is labelled.
• Switch the clipper on and the blades will start to move.
• Hold the clipper to the front of your hair with the teeth pointing
towards the back of your head and move the clipper towards your
crown. Repeat as necessary, moving in rows from the front and
the sides of your head to the back.
• If you then wish to take the back and sides of your hair to a shorter
length, switch off the appliance and attach a shorter comb guide.
• Starting at the nape of the neck, with the comb guide flat against
the head, move the clipper upwards and outwards over the area
you want to take shorter.
• Repeat on the sides of the hair, starting with the teeth of the
clipper pointing upwards and comb guide flat against the area
above the ear, again moving the clipper upwards and outwards.
Outlining:
• To tidy up the edges around your cut e.g. neckline and sideburns,
detach the comb guides.
• Hold the appliance upside down, so the front of the clipper is
facing towards your head.
• Hold the clipper straight on your sideburns or neckline and move
the clipper downwards. This will give you a clean, smooth finish.
