Tips for beginners
Practice makes perfect when it comes the haircuts.
Never move the hair clipper quickly through the hair for a standard cut. The appliance only
works at its best if it is pushed gently. Don't forget to comb through the hair at regular intervals,
in order to remove the small hairs that have already been cut.
While you do this, check that you have been cutting the hair evenly.
It is better not to cut the hair too short at first, so that you can get used to the length of cut at
each setting. We recommend that you begin with the longest length of cut (20 mm), and then
select a shorter setting if required.
Cutting
Unlock the comb attachment by sliding the cutting length locking switch (6) to "Unlock". At first,
set the length of cut to 20 mm.
Fix the cut length at this setting by moving the cutting length locking switch back to "Lock".
This procedure must be repeated each time the length of cut is re-set.

Fig. 1. Start by trimming the sides from the bottom upwards. Hold the clipper lightly against the
hair with teeth of the attachment comb pointing up but flat against the head. Slowly lift the
clipper up and outward through the hair.
Fig. 2. Repeat around sides and back of head.

Fig. 3. If you want to cut the hair shorter, you have to set a shorter length of cut. Alternatively,
you could use the same setting and press more firmly, then lift the appliance out more slowly.
This entire procedure requires practice, and it is always better to leave too much hair the first
few haircuts.
Fig. 4. You can use the 10 or 1 2mm hair length setting to cut the top hair on the head quite
short. Use the 4 or 7mm setting to cut crew cuts. With the teeth flat against the head, slowly
start trimming from the front to the back. Again, it is better to leave the hair longer the first few
haircuts.
Fig. 5 & 6 Outlining. You do not need the comb attachment to finish off the cut. Remove the
comb attachment from the appliance for this step. Comb hair into the style. Position clipper
between the side burns and the ear. Make sure the corner edge of the blade is against the
hairline.
Fig. 7. With the outline of the hair as your guide. slowly move the clipper over. around, and
behind the ears. For the back of the neck and the sideburns, hold the clipper upside down,
(see sketch), and holding it against the skin at the length desired, move downwards.
Cleaning
Never immerse the appliance in water or other liquid.
Clean the outside of the appliance with a damp cloth and dry it with a soft, clean cloth. Never
use abrasives. Hold the hair clipper slightly vertically in front of you, i.e. with the clipper blade
at the front slightly upwards towards you. Press the blades backwards with your thumbs in
order to remove the clipper blade from the casing. The cutting head and the holder will come
off the hair clipper. Press the white block with the holder to open the clipper blades.
Use the cleaning brush to remove any hair remaining between the blades.
Then place 2 or 3 drops of oil between the blades for lubrication. Push the cutting head back
on until it clicks properly into place. Switch the appliance on for a couple of seconds so that the
oil can be distributed evenly. Use the oil supplied for lubrication.
