When using the 4-size comb (10, 20, 30 and 40 mm) (Fig. 1)
1. With the switch in position “O” adjust the accessory to the height you wish by sliding it until it clicks in one of the 4 heights (Fig. 3).
2. Cut the hair at the height you wish by moving the hair trimmer towards the back in the hair direction. (The hair’s actual length will be
a little bit longer than the selected height) (Fig. 4).
(Do not use the hair trimmer in an inverted position. This may cause the hair to be cut with too much depth) (Fig. 5).
3. Turn off the hair trimmer before changing the cutting height or before removing the accessory.
3 and 6 mm accessory combs.
1. To place the accessory comb in the hair trimmer, place the hook on one side of the accessory comb in the support, and then slide the
other side to the other support in the direction indicated with the arrow. (Fig. 7).
2. To remove the accessory comb from the hair trimmer, slide one side of the accessory from the support in the direction indicated by
the arrow (Fig. 8).
Accessory for short hair
1. For short hair (1/3 of hair), install the accessory for short hair on top of the hair trimmer’s blades in the direction of the arrow (Fig. 9).
(Push until you hear a click).
2. To remove the accessory, push both sides in the directions of the arrow while you remove the accessory (Fig. 10).
Cutting without accessories
Cut the hair placing the hair trimmer’s head directly on the scalp (Fig. 11). Cutting without accessories will leave the hair length at one
millimetre or less.
Blade assembly and disassembly
1. Hold the hair trimmer’s body with the PALSON symbol upwards and push the blade in the direction indicated by the arrow with your
thumb.
At the same time, hold the blade with the other hand. Make sure the switch is in position “O” before removing the blade (Fig. 12).
2. To re-assemble the blade, fit the supporting hook in the blade mount on the hair trimmer’s body and push it until it clicks (Fig. 13).
Duration of the blade and the battery
The blade’s lifetime will vary according to the frequency and length of use. The blades’ life expectancy is about 6 years if the hair trimmer
is used twice a month for 20 minutes each time. If the efficiency of the cut is substantially reduced despite appropriate maintenance, this
means that the blades have exceeded their useful life and need to be changed.
The battery’s life expectancy will vary according to the frequency and length of use. If the battery is charged 3 times a month, its useful
life will be approximately 6 years. If the unit is not charged for more than six months, the battery will lose charge and its useful life may
be reduced.
Therefore, it is recommended to recharge the unit at least every six months, even if it is not used regularly.
Blade Care
Please clean the blade after use to protect it appropriately.
1. Place the switch in position “O” (off) and unplug it.
2. Remove the blade.
3. Take the blade from the hair trimmer and remove the upper part of the blade from the set. (Fig. 2)
4. Please be careful with the blade since it may cut you.
5. Use the cleaning brush to clean the blade and the unit (Fig. 14 and 15).
6. Add oil in the parts marked with an arrow point (Fig. 16).
7. Place the blade in the unit.
