TO ATTACH & REMOVE THE TRIMMING GUIDES
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 and 16mm. Hold comb with teeth up, slide the
attachment firmly onto the bottom clipper blade.
To remove the attachment, use the latch at the back of the comb to lever it
away from the back of the hair clipper. DO NOT grasp the comb from the front
as this may cause the guides to bend or break.
TIPS FOR CUTTING HAIR
• Allow the clipper to cut through the hair without forcing it at a faster rate, as
this may create a pulling sensation.
• Use short strokes when cutting and initially use a long trimming guide. You
can always use a closer trimming guide later if you want a closer cut.
• Start at the back and around the ears to define the length of the head and
work your way up to the crown of the head in layers.
• To cut the top of the head, hold the hair between your fingers and cut a
small amount at a time with scissors, or with a long trimming guide on the
hair clipper. Cut from the front to the back.
• Remove trimming guides from the clipper and use the clipper to carefully
trim around the ears and short hairs at the nape of the neck. Angle the
clipper around each ear and be careful not to touch the ears of press too
hard.
• Use the taper lever to adjust the closeness of the cut without the trimming
guides, or to blend between hair layers with the trimming guides attached.
