already attached to the standard comb guide. This comb guide
helps to provide maximum precision and length control when
trimming around the sideburns and contours of the neck.
The i-trimstubble+ can be used with or without the stubble comb
guide attachment, whichever is more comfortable for you to use.
IMPORTANT: Always remove and attach the comb guide BEFORE

side of the stubble comb guide and pull
it away to separate the two comb guide
attachments. The standard comb guide
