How to Use
Charging
(HC-920 and HC-930 only)
The HC-920 and HC-930 may be operated
with or without the cord attached. For cord-
less operation, the unit should be fully
charged first. Attach the cord to the unit
and plug it in for 14 hours before use.
Line Cord Safety Tips
NOTE: This appliance has a polarized plug
(one blade is wider than the other). As a
safety feature, this plug will fit in a polar-
ized outlet only one way. If the plug does
not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug.
If it still does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this
safety feature.
1.
To insert plug, grasp it firmly and guide it
into outlet.
2.
To disconnect the appliance, grasp the
plug and remove it from outlet. Do not
pull or yank on the cord or appliance.
Do not wrap the cord around the
appliance.
Blade Care
The life of your clippers will depend on
frequency of use, care, application of oil,
and hair type and condition. Blades should
be replaced when cutting efficiency has
deteriorated. Contact a Remington Service
Center for a quotation.
HC-815, HC-8017, HC-912, HC-920, HC-921,
and HC-930 blades are lubed for life and do
not require additional oil.
Oiling the HC-810’s Blades
■
We have pre-oiled and aligned the
blades on your Remington
®
hair clipper.
■
The blades on your HC-810 hair clipper
should be oiled before every haircut.
Simply place
a few drops
of oil on the
teeth of the
blades.
■
Not applying
enough oil to
the HC-810’s blades generally causes
cutting problems. Blades will wear pre-
maturely and not cut properly if they are
not sufficiently lubricated. There may
also be a pulling sensation on the hair.
Oil Cautions
■
Use only the light-grade oil supplied or a
suitable alternative like sewing machine oil.
■
Do not
use hair oil, grease, or any oil
mixed with kerosene or solvent, as the
solvent will evaporate and leave the
thick oil, slowing the blades.
Before Cutting Hair
1.
Make sure your hair clipper is oiled (if
model HC-810) and runnning smoothly,
with a slight vibration.
2.
Place a cape around the neck of the per-
son whose hair is being trimmed or cut.
(A cape is provided with models HC-920,
HC-921, and HC-930.)
3.
This person should be seated so that the
top of his head is at your eye level.
4.
Comb the hair as it is normally styled.
5.
Comb out all knots and tangles.
6.
Ensure the hair is dry. Hair clippers per-
form best with dry hair, making it easier
to see how much hair is being cut.
7.
Hold the hair clipper in the palm of one
hand with your thumb resting firmly on
the top of the hair clipper. This grip pro-
vides comfortable cutting control.
Although the hair clipper may be used
with the left or right hand, using it right-
handed allows you to access the taper
lever more easily.
To Attach Trimming Guides
1.
Select the trimming guide that matches
the length you want the hair to be after
the cut. The trimming guides are num-
bered and marked with 1/8” (3mm), 1/4”
(7mm), 3/8” (9mm), 1/2” (12mm),
5/8”(15mm), 3/4”(18mm), 7/8”(22mm),
and 1”(25mm). See preceding chart to
determine which combs your model
contains.
2.
While the clipper is off, hold the trimming
guide with the teeth up. Slide the
trimming guide onto the blades until it
locks into place.
