CONTAINS
BEFORE CUTTING HAIR
The blades of this clipper are designed to remain lubricated. They do not need oiling.
We have aligned the blades on your hair clipper prior to shipment. It is possible the
blades maybe bumped out of alignment whilst in transit. Correct blade alignment
is essential for effective cutting. The end of the top blade should be closer to the
body of the hair clipper than the bottom blade. This is important so that the clipper
doesn't cut too close or allow the moving blade to touch the skin. 1.The bottom
blade should be as closely aligned as possible to the centre of the top blade. 2.If the
blades are not correctly aligned, turn the clipper on for a few moments,turn off and
unplug. Lossen the two screws slightly and manually adjust the bottom blade until it
is aligned. Re-tighten the screws. 3.Ensure the hair clipper is running smoothly, with
a slight vibration, before attempting to cut any hair.

GETTING STARTED

For the first time it's better to leave the hair longer. As you get to know your clipper
better, you will be able to model desired haircuts yourself.
1. Ensure the clipper is off
2. The hair should be clean and dry.
3. Comb the hair as it is normally styled
4. Hold the hair clipper in one hand and with your thumb resting firmly on the top
of the hair clipper. This grip proves comfortable cutting control. Although the hair
clipper be used left or right handed, using it right handed allows you to access the
taper lever more easily.
To attach trimming guides
1. Select an appropriate length trimming guide to match the desired length of
hair to remain after the cut. The trimming guides are numbered and marked with
3mm,6mm,9mm,12mm
2. Hold comb with teeth up, slide the attachment firmly onto the bottom clipper
blade.
Allow the clipper to cut through the hair without forcing it at a faster rate, as this may
create a pulling sensation.
Use initially the longest trimming guide. You can always use a closer trimming guide
later if you want a closer cut.
