position. To increase cutting length, slowly push the
lever down.To cut closer, push the lever up. Because a
different cutting edge is used in each setting, using the
taper lever lengthens the life of your blades.
Packed-in hair can slow down any clipper. To remove
hair without removing the blades, keep the clipper
on and quickly push the taper lever up and down
several times. If
you do this every
time, especially
after heavy
hair cutting, the
blades should
remain free of cut
hair.

CARE OF YOUR UNIT
DETACHABLE BLADE SET
Your appliance is equipped
with a detachable blade set
for routine maintenance,
cleaning and replacement.
To remove the blades: the
front of the clipper should be
facing you; push up under
the blades with your thumb
and the blades will pop out.
(See Fig 1)
To replace the blades: Make
sure the taper control is set
to the longest position and,
with the back of the clipper
facing you, insert the bottom side (with screws) of the
blades into the clipper and push down until it snaps
into place. (See Fig 2)

MAINTENANCE OF THE BLADES
Always apply oil to the blades before and after use. This
will ensure maximum cutting performance. Hold clipper
away from your body in a downward position and apply
oil on the front and sides of the cutter blades. Wipe
excess oil off with a soft, dry cloth.
*The top edge of the cutting comb should be 1/32” to
1/16” (.79 mm. to 1.59 mm.) higher than the top edge
of the cutter. This is important so that the clipper does
not cut too close or come in contact with the skin.
*The extreme left-hand tooth of the cutting comb must
cover or be to the extreme left hand of the first small
tooth of the cutter.
