INSTRUCTIONS FOR 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
•
Hook front side of attachment comb on front side of teeth.
•
Press back side of comb downwards, until the tab clicks into place.
TO REMOVE THE COMB
•
Press upward on the tab to release the comb.
•
With tab released, pull comb away from clipper and unhook front of the blade.
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 first time, start with the
maximum comb attachment.
STEP 1 – Nape of the neck
•
Attach the 3mm or 6mm fixed 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
•
With the 12mm or 16mm guide comb attached, cut the hair at the back of the head.
STEP 3 – Side of the head
•
With the 3mm or 6mm 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
•
Use the longer length fixed combs of 22mm or 25mm to 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.
