CLIPPER MAINTENANCE
Your WAHL clipper blades were oiled and aligned before leaving our
factory, however it is possible for blades to get bumped out of alignment.
Blades must be realigned if they have been removed for cleaning or
replacement. To determine if realignment is necessary, compare your
clipper blades with this sketch.
1. End of top blade teeth should be .025” to .050” (.64mm to 1.27mm) back
from bottom blade. This is important so that the clipper does not cut too
close or allow the moving cutter to touch the skin.
2. Extreme left hand tooth of top blade must be covering or to the left of
the first small tooth of bottom blade.
3. Extreme right hand tooth of top blade must be touching the big tooth on
the bottom blade.
If blade alignment is incorrect, add a few drops of oil to the blades, turn
clipper on for a few moments, turn off and unplug. Loosen screws slightly
and adjust. Tighten screws after blade is aligned
1. Put a few drops of wahl clipper oil on blades.
2. Bottom blade.
3. Top blade.
4. Blade slide only on adjustable blade clippers.
5. Blade lever (not on all models).
6. Power screw.
7. Switch.
8. Case.
9. Hanging loop.

Deluxe Chrome Pro Clipper
OIL
The blades of your new clipper should be oiled every few haircuts. Simply
place a few drops of oil on the teeth of the blades. Use only the WAHL oil
included in the pack.
Due to the high speed of your WAHL clipper the correct type of oil must
be used. Do not use hair oil, grease or any oil mixed with kerosene or
any solvent as the solvent will evaporate and leave the thick oil slowing
down the blades. WAHL clipper oil is very thin, natural oil which will not
evaporate and will not slow down the blades.
POWER SCREW
(Not found in all models of WAHL clippers)
If your clipper has a power screw, it has been adjusted for peak efficiency
before leaving the factory. However, if voltage in your home is low, you
may need to re-adjust it. To adjust power, use a screwdriver or a thin coin
to turn power screw in clockwise direction until the arm strikes the coil,
making a noise.
Slowly turn power screw out (counter-clockwise) just until noise stops,
then half turn anti clockwise. This is the maximum power setting.
The cord should not be used to pull the clipper. Since freedom of
movement needs to be maintained, care should be taken to keep the cord
untwisted and unobstructed. When stored, the cord should be coiled
and the unit placed in original box or storage pouch. This clipper has been
designed for household use.

Deluxe Chrome Pro Clipper
TAPER LEVER
Some WAHL clippers are equipped with an adjustable taper lever. The
taper lever is conveniently located near your thumb (if you are right
handed) so it can easily be adjusted while the clipper is in your hand. The
taper lever adds versatility to your clipper by allowing you to gradually
change the closeness of your cut without an attachment comb. When the
lever is in the uppermost position, the blades will give you the closest
cut and leave the hair very short. Pushing the lever downward gradually
increases the cutting length. In its lowermost position, the taper lever will
leave the hair approximately the same length as a #1 comb (0.3cm).
Occasionally cut hair may get between the blade set and jam the blades,
adjusting the taper arm will help remove the hair that has become wedged
between the two blades without having to remove them. When you have
finished cutting, turn the clipper on so it is running rapidly. Move the lever
from “close cut” to “longer cut” a couple of times. Doing this each time
you’ve finished using your clipper will help keep the blades clear of cut hair.
If your clipper stops cutting and this does not help, your cutting blades may
be dull or blunt. Either replace them or return
them to WAHL for sharpening.
WAHL’S GUIDE TO FOOLPROOF HOME HAIR CUTTING
BEFORE YOU CUT HAIR
1. Your clipper should be clean, oiled and in perfect working condition.
2. If your kit includes a plastic cape, place it around the neck, ensuring that
it is fastened securely to avoid hair falling down inside the collar. If no
cape is provided in your kit, a towel will do nicely.
3. Position the person whose hair is to be cut on a stool or chair so that the
top of their head is level with your eyes.
4. After combing the hair to remove all tangles, hold the clipper in a
relaxed, comfortable grip with the lid facing upwards under the palm of
close cut
longer cut

your hand. This grip will help you maintain comfortable, accurate cutting
control.
CUTTING YOUR HAIR
(for average medium to long cut)
The first time you cut the hair, cut only a small amount until you become
accustomed to how long each attachment comb leaves the hair. Always
start by placing the largest attachment comb on the clipper, then use
shorter combs if desired length is shorter.
Remember, between professional haircuts, the hair grows evenly all over
the head and a light trimming at the lower neck and sides may be all that is
needed to bring that neat, well-groomed look.
Some kits do not include all WAHL attachment combs. However, these
combs may be available from your dealer, or can be ordered on the order
form enclosed.
INDIVIDUAL BLACK OR COLOUR CODED GUIDE COMBS
Providing predetermined lengths indicated on each guide comb.
Colour combs are coded for quick cutting length reference.
comb #1 (black/red) - leaves hair approx. 0.3cm in length
comb #2 (black/purple) - leaves hair approx. 0.6cm in length
comb #3 (black/dark blue) - leaves hair approx. 0.9cm in length
comb #4 (black/orange) - leaves hair approx. 1.2cm in length
comb #5 (black/yellow) - leaves hair approx. 1.6cm in length
comb #6 (black/lavender) - leaves hair approx. 1.9cm in length
comb #7 (black/green) - leaves hair approx. 2.2cm in length
comb #8 (black/light blue) - leaves hair approx. 2.5cm in length
comb #10 (black/white)- leaves hair approx. 3.1cm in length
comb #12 (black)- leaves hair approx. 3.8cm in length
Special angle attachment combs are also available:

To attach combs, hold comb with teeth up, snap comb attachment firmly to
the bottom of the clipper blade.

EAR TRIM GUIDE COMB
Removes fear while trimming around the ears. With your clipper turned off,
attach the Ear Trim Guide to your Hair Clipper just like a regular snap on
guide comb. For optimum performance; rest one tine on the head, hold the
clipper at approximately a 45-degree angle and slowly move the clipper
around the ear (outside) working from front to back. The tine channels hair
to the teeth of the clipper.
WARNING: EAR TRIM GUIDE POINTS ARE SHARP. USE WITH CARE.
EYEBROW TRIM GUIDE COMB
Trims and shapes eyebrows with an easy snap on guide comb. With the
clipper turned off attach the Eyebrow Trim Guide just like a regular snap on
guide comb. Starting from just above your nose slowly guide the clipper to
the outside of your face, trimming in the same direction as your hair grows.
This will trim and shape the longest and most unruly hair. To trim much
shorter you may work from the outside of the face back towards your nose.
Extra care should be used when applying this technique as it may trim
much closer than you would like.
WARNING: USE CARE WHEN TRIMMING THE EYEBROWS TO AVOID
POKING THE EYES.
For uniform cutting allow the clipper to cut its way through the hair. Do not
force it through at a faster rate.
1. Start by combing the hair so it falls into its natural direction.
2. Place the largest attachment comb onto your clipper and start
by trimming the sides from the bottom upwards.
Hold the clipper lightly against the hair with teeth of the
attachment comb pointing up but flat against the head.
Slowly lift the clipper up and outward through the hair, cutting
only a small amount at a time.
REPEAT AROUND SIDES AND BACK OF HEAD.
If you desire shorter hair, either change to a lower number
attachment comb, or apply more pressure and less lift away from
head with the present attachment comb.
This entire procedure requires practice, it is always better to leave too
much hair the first few haircuts.

11
Deluxe Chrome Pro Clipper
For the top of the head you will give a fairly short cut if you use
the #8 (2.5cm length) attachment comb.
With the teeth flat against the head, slowly start trimming from
the front to the back. Again, it is better to leave the hair longer
the first few haircuts.
Longer hair on top: (no attachment comb). Use either the
enclosed barber comb, or a regular comb, and lift the hair on
the top of the head cutting over the comb, or grasp the hair
between the fingers from the front to the back of the head,
gradually cutting the hair shorter by reducing the space between
the comb or fingers and the head. Comb the clients hair frequently,
removing trimmed hair and checking for uneven strands.
OUTLINING
When outlining, no attachment combs are needed. On a multi-cut clipper,
push the lever up to the close-cut position. Comb hair into desired style,
then starting between the ear and the sideburns as shown, hold clipper
with corner edge of blade against the hair-line.
Slowly follow the desired outline of the hair over, around and behind
the ears. For defining sideburns and the back of the neck, hold the clipper
upside down, as shown, and hold against the skin at the desired length and
move down. Comb hair and check that sides are even. Check for uneven
spots throughout the haircut and amend if required.
SHORT TAPERED STYLES
If a short tapered cut on the sides and back is desired, follow this diagram:
INSTRUCTIONS FOR CUTTING MEN’S AND BOY’S HAIR
CREW CUTS AND SHORT CUTS
Starting with the desired attachment comb, cut from the back of the neck
to the crown. Hold the attachment comb flat against the head and slowly
move the clipper through the hair as shown.

12
Deluxe Chrome Pro Clipper
Use the same procedure from the lower side to the upper side of the head,
as shown. Then cut the hair against the direction in which it grows from the
front to the crown and even up the cut with the sides.
To give a ‘flat top’ look, the hair on top of the head must be cut over the top
of a flat top comb rather than using the attachment comb.
Use closer cutting attachment combs to “taper” the hair down to the
neckline as desired. Comb hair and check for uneven spots and outline
sideburns and neckline as previously described.
The four basic areas illustrated on the Wahl Cutting Guide are your “road
map” to easy do-it-yourself hair cutting.
