Trimming Up - Westfalia HC50 Instruction Manual

For a uniform cut, do not push the clippers through the hair too
quickly. The unit functions best at slow speeds.
First comb through the hair so that it falls naturally.
Then use the unit with the largest comb attachment first, and
start at the sides, moving from the bottom to the top.
Hold the unit lightly against the hair, so that the teeth of the
comb attachment point upwards and lie flat against the head.
Slowly guide the clipper upwards through the hair and then lift
off (Figure 1). Only cut a small area.
Repeat the procedure on the sides and back of the head
(Figure 2).
If the hair needs to be shorter, either use a smaller comb
attachment, or press a bit harder and lift off the unit less
quickly.
This procedure takes some practice and we recommend
leaving the hair a bit longer for the first cut (Figure 3).
If you use comb ¾ " CUT, you can cut the top hair on the head
very short. Hold the teeth flat against the head and cut slowly
from the front to the back. Again, it is better to leave the hair
here a bit longer to start with (Figure 4).

Trimming Up

You do not need any accessories for trimming up the hairstyle.
Push the lever of the unit into the short hair position.
Comb the hair into the finished style. Start between the
sideburns and the ear (Figure 5).
Make sure that the blade ends are lying on the edge of the hair.
Follow the contour of the hair and cut over and behind the ears
(Figure 6).
