STEP 5 – The finishing touches – DIAGRAM 5
This product has a taper lever located at the left side of the clipper near the blades. Adjust
the lever to change the closeness of the cut gradually and also to improve the effectiveness of
the comb attachments. The taper lever also extends the life of the blades because a different
cutting edge is used in each setting.

With the 9mm or 12mm guide comb attached, cut hair on top of the head against the
direction in which the hair normally grows.
For longer hair on top, use without a guide comb. Lift the hair on top of the head with a
small hand comb. Cut over the hand comb with the hair lifted or hold the hair between the
fingers to lift it and cut it to the desired length.
Always work from the back of the head.
Use the clipper without an attachment comb for close trimming around the base and sides
of the neck. Use the ear comb guides to get a clean line around each ear. For the required
ear comb guide, angle the clipper and lightly stroke around each ear to the back 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.
