The blades of this clipper are designed to remain permanently lubricated. They do not need oiling. We have aligned the blades on your hair clipper prior to shipment. It is possible the blades may be bumped out of alignment whilst in transit. Correct blade alignment is essential for effective cutting. Compare the blade position on your hair clipper with the images shown on the left. If the blades are out of alignment they can be easily adjusted.

1. The end of the top blade should be closer to the body of the hair clipper than the bottom

blade. This is important so that the clipper doesn't cut too close or allow the moving (top) blade to touch the skin.

2. The bottom blade should be as closely aligned as possible to the centre of the top blade.

3. If the blades are not correctly aligned, turn the clipper on for a few moments, turn off and

unplug. Loosen the two screws slightly and manually adjust the bottom blade until it is aligned. Re-tighten the screws.

4. Ensure the hair clipper is running smoothly, with a slight vibration, before attempting to cut

any hair. GETTING STARTED

1. Make sure your clipper is operating correctly.

2. Place a cape around the neck of the person whose hair is being trimmed or cut.

3. This person should be seated so that the top of their head is at your eye level.

4. Comb the hair as it is normally styled.

5. Comb out all knots and tangles.

6. Hold the hair clipper In the palm of one hand and with your thumb resting firmly on the top

of the hair clipper. This grip proves comfortable cutting control. Although the hair clipper be used left or right handed, using it right handed allows you to access the taper lever more easily.- 9 -

7. Ensure the hair is dry. Hair clippers perform best with dry hair, making it easier to see how

much hair is being cut.

TO ATTACH TRIMMING GUIDES

1. 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

2. Hold comb with teeth up, slide the attachment firmly onto

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 the longest trimming guide. You can always use a closer trimming guide later if you want a closer cut.

HOW TO GIVE A HAIRCUT

1. Start at the back of the head. Holding the clipper as shown, lightly stroke

upwards making sure you are taking off the desired amount of hair. Work your way up to the crown of the head in layers. When completed, comb the area to remove any loose hair and determine if you need any further cutting.

2. Repeat the same procedure for each side of the head. Make sure the length

of the hair is trimmed the same on both sides of the head.

3. To cut the top of the head, hold the hair between your fingers and cut a small

amount at a time. Cut from the front to the back.

4. To trim around the ears and short hairs at the nape of the neck, you must

remove the trimming guide. Angle the clipper and lightly stoke around each ear to the back of the neck. Be careful not to touch ears or to press too hard.

5. Final trim can be made with the hair clipper or the scissors. Make sure to

check over the entire head for any uneven areas. For styled hair or giving quick trims, you may prefer using your hair clipper without the trimming guide.

6. The adjustable taper level allows you to gradually change the closeness of

the cut, either with or without a trimming guide. When the lever is fully forward the blades will give the closest cut. Moving the lever gradually backwards increases the cutting length. SHORT TAPERED STYLES - "FLAT TOPS" & SHORT CUTS

1. Starting with the longest attachment comb (25mm), cut from the back of the neck to the

crown. Hold the attachment comb flat against the head and slowly move the clipper through the hair, as shown.

2. Use the same procedure from the lower side to the upper side of the head,

as illustrated. Then cut the hair against the direction In which it grows and level with the sides.

3. To give a "flat top" look, the hair on top of the head must be cut over the top

4. Use closer cutting attachment combs to taper the hair down to the neckline as desired.- 10 -
