• For clipping the top of the head (see fig. 1).
• For clipping the back of the head (see fig. 2).
• For clipping the sides of the head (see fig. 3).
• For detailing (see fig. 4).
• 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.
• For one all over cut length, attach the desired guide comb and slowly guide
the clipper through the hair against the direction the hair normally grows.
• Remove the guide comb. To produce a clean straight line at the sideburns
and the base of the neck, 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.
, The following instructions are for those users who want different trimming
lengths on the sides, back and top of the head
, STEP 1 – Nape of the neck
• Set the comb to 3mm or 6mm.
• 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 comb set at 9mm or 12mm, cut the hair at the back of the head.
, STEP 3 – Side of the head
• With the comb set at 3mm or 6mm, 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 comb attachment and set it to 12mm or 15mm then
cut hair on top of the head against the direction in which the hair normally
grows.
, STEP 5 – The finishing touches
• Use the clipper without an attachment comb for close trimming around the
base and sides of the neck and around the ears.
• To produce a clean straight line at the sideburns, reverse the hair clipper.
