Clipping or trimming without distance comb
Remove the distance comb (only possible at setting «1»). To start clipping,
shift the on/off switch to «on».
Move the cutting system only in a parallel position to the skin (A, cutting
hair). Slowly and carefully move the appliance against the direction of hair
growth. Only when trimming contours should the cutting system be
positioned vertically (B, trimming).
Make sure you do not tilt the appliance while it is touching the skin (C).
Avoid jerky movements while cutting.
Clipping with the barber’s comb
To cut longer hair, hold it up with the barber’s comb (10) and cut it with
the scissors (11) or with the clipper (distance comb must be removed from
the clipper – only possible at setting «1»).
Keeping your clipper in top shape
After each use and when the distance comb is taken off, slightly shake
or brush hair from the clipper and the distance comb. Press the release
button (3) to open the cutting system (2). Using the brush (13), clean the
cutting system and the inside of the clipper.
To keep the cutting system working properly, oil it with light machine oil
after each use (D).
Then click the cutting system back to its original position.
After use, unplug the cord from the appliance for longer cord life.
Preserving the rechargeable battery (HC 50 only)
In order to optimise the capacity and life of the battery, it should be fully
discharged through regular use every 6 months approximately. Then
recharge to full capacity again. Do not keep the clipper on permanent
charge. Do not expose the clipper to temperatures of more than 50°C for
longer periods of time.
