Before cutting, always comb the hair so it is tangle free and dry.
TO ATTACH A COMB

2. Slide it onto and along the clipper blade until the front of the comb firmly sits
against the clipper blade.
3. Gently push the back of the comb down so it snaps into place.
TO REMOVE THE COMB

the back tab upward and away from the blades.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR CUTTING HAIR
•
For even cutting, allow the comb attachment/blade to cut its way through the hair.
Do not force it through quickly. If you are cutting for the first time, start with the
maximum comb attachment.
STEP 1 – NAPE OF THE NECK
1. Use 3mm or 7mm guide comb.
2. Hold the clipper with the blade teeth pointing upwards. Begin starting at the
centre of the head at the base of the neck.
3. Slowly lift the clipper, working upwards and outwards through the hair, trimming
just a little at a time.
STEP 2 – BACK OF THE HEAD
•
With the 12mm or 18mm guide comb attached, cut the hair at the back of the head.
STEP 3 – SIDE OF THE HEAD
•
With the 3mm or 7mm guide comb attached, trim sideburns. Then change to
the longer 9mm guide comb and continue to cut the top of the head.
STEP 4 – TOP OF THE HEAD
•
Use the longer length comb attachment and set it to 18mm or 25mm then cut hair
on top of the head against the direction in which the hair normally grows.
•
For longer hair on top, use without a guide comb. Lift the hair on top of the head
with a small hand comb. Cut over the hand comb with the hair lifted or hold the hair
between the fingers to lift it and cut it to the desired length.
•
Always work from the back of the head.
