To clip in the most effective way, move the appliance against the
,
direction of hair growth.
 Turn the swivel head to the position that is most comfortable for
your arm when clipping the different parts of your head.
 Make sure that the flat part of the comb attachment is fully in
contact with the scalp to obtain an even cutting result.

Clipping without comb attachment

You can use the clipper without comb attachment to clip your hair very
close to the skin (0.8mm) or to contour the neckline and the area around
the ears.
Note: When you use the hair clipper without a comb attachment, the clipper
cuts the hair very close to the skin.
1 Remove the comb attachment by pulling it off the
appliance (Fig. 11).
Never pull at the flexible top of the comb attachment. Always pull at
the bottom part.
 When you contour the hair around the ears, only cut the hair ends.
The hairline should be close to the ear (Fig. 1).
 To contour the neckline and the sideburns, turn the clipper and
make downward strokes (Fig. 1).
 Move slowly and smoothly. Just follow the natural hairline.
5 Adjust the position of the swivel head to make contouring easier.

Using the precision trimmer

neckline and the area around the ears more easily and more precisely.
