the crown, using the longest attachment
comb. Holding it flat against the head,
slowly move the hair clipper up through
the hair. (Diagram C-1)
2. Use the same technique for the sides,
cutting from the bottom to the upper side
of the head.
3. From the front to the crown, cut the
hair against the direction in which it
grows.Then even it up with the sides.

4. For a flat top, use a normal flat comb
and cut hair on top of the head over it.
5.To taper hair down to the neckline, use
closer cutting attachment combs. Comb
hair and check for uneven spots and
outline sideburns and neckline. (Diagram

Maintaining Your Kambrook
Hair Clipper
Cleaning
After you have finished using your hair
clipper rapidly move the adjustable lever
up and down a couple of times while the
hair clipper is still running, to remove any
hair that may be caught in between the
blades.Then switch off the appliance and
power outlet.Then unplug your hair
clipper and clean the blades with the
brush supplied.
Oiling
To maintain the hair clipper in peak
condition, the blades should be regularly
oiled before, during and after every
haircut. A substitute/replacement for the
clipper oil supplied in the kit is household
sewing machine oil.
NOTE: Do not use hair oil, grease, oil mixed with
kerosene or solvent, as the solvent will evaporate
and leave the thick oil, which may slow down the
blade motion.
To oil the blades, gently squeeze a few
drops of oil between the blade teeth and
turn the clipper on, checking that the
clipper is running smoothly.
If the blades are dulled and have stopped
cutting, replace them with new blades
from your nearest Kambrook service
centre.
