How to Use
Trimming Beards
■
Before you begin, comb your hair
in the direction that it grows so
that the hairs are at their maximum
height and facing in the same
direction.
■
Determine how much hair you want
to cut and position the hair length
selector accordingly. Remember,
until you are familiar with using the
trimmer, it is always better to select
a longer hair setting initially in order
not to trim too much hair.
To Trim the Beard’s Hair
Length
■
Make sure Adjustable Comb and
Beard Blade is on.
■
Turn the trimmer so the front of the
cutting unit (Zoom Wheel side) is
facing away from you.
■
Start trimming under your chin and,
following your jawbone line, work
toward your ear and upper beard
line using an upward motion. Allow
the Adjustable Comb to follow the
contours of your face. You may trim
either against or with the direction
of beard growth, whichever is
preferred.
To Define the Beard Line
■
Remove Adjustable Comb.
■
Hold trimmer vertically with cutting
blades facing you.
■
Start with edge of beard line. With
the cutting blades resting lightly
against your skin, use motions
towards edge of beard line to trim
it to desired location in facial area
and away from beard in neck area.
■
For trimming in tight spots or small
areas attach Goatee Blade.
Creating the “Stubble Look”
■
Adjustable Comb should be on
and set to position 1 (1.5 mm) or 2
(2.5 mm) and Stubble Blade should
be attached (MB4040 only).
■
Hold trimmer horizontally with the
cutting unit facing either up or
down.
■
Trim hairs using an upward or
downward motion against or
with the direction of hair growth,
whichever is preferred.
■
For an even closer “stubble look,”
remove the Adjustable Comb and
repeat the previous two steps.
To Trim Sideburns
■
Comb sideburns following the
direction of your hair growth.
■
Be certain Adjustable Comb
attachment is on.
■
Hold trimmer vertically with front of
trimmer facing you.
■
Trim sideburns using a downward
motion.
Cleaning & Maintenance
Cleaning and Maintaining
Your Trimmer
Clean your trimmer regularly to
ensure that the unit’s operating life
is not prematurely shortened.
■
Unplug adapter from wall outlet
and insure that your trimmer is
turned off.
■
Do not use liquid cleaners on
the cutters or harsh or corrosive
chemicals on the unit’s main body.
■
Remove Adjustable Comb. Tap or
blow out any excess hairs that
may be on the comb.
■
Use cleaning brush to brush away
excess hair clippings from trimmer
blade.
■
The removable blades can be
rinsed under water (Do Not rinse
the main Trimmer Body). Rinse
blade under warm running water
for several seconds, making sure
hair debris is removed from blade.
Dry any excess water that may
be on blade before reattaching.
See "Quick Release Blades" for
information on detaching and
reattaching blade assembly.
Do not rinse the trimmer body
under water.
■
If blade is rinsed, it is
recommended to add 1 or 2 drops
of sewing machine oil to the blade.
Troubleshooting
The trimmer does not work when
turned on:
■
Trimmer must be charged for a
full 24 hours initially.
Trimmer cutters do not move:
■
The cutting unit may be dirty and
clogged. Clean the unit as directed in
Cleaning & Maintenance section.
Trimmer does not hold charge:
■
Fully discharge battery by running
trimmer until it stops; then follow
recharging instructions (see section
on "Operating Your Trimmer").

Trimming the Nape of Your
Neck
■
You will need a hand mirror for this
operation if performing it alone. The
mirror is not necessary if trimming
is performed by a second person.
■
Remove the Adjustable Comb
and make sure stubble blade is
attached.
■
Use your fingers to lift the hair at
the base of your head up off the
neck. Your index finger should be
covering the roots of the hairs you
are lifting to prevent accidental
removal by trimmer.
■
Using your other hand, hold the
trimmer horizontally to the base
of your neck with the cutting unit
facing up, and move the trimmer
along the length of the neck
until the unit touches your finger
covering the hair roots at the base
of your head. Repeat this procedure
for the entire area of the neck. Be
sure to move the unit slowly when
performing this operation and to
keep the hair roots at the base of
your head out of the way of the
trimmer.
■
Use the hand mirror to inspect the
results of the operation and ensure
all hairs along the nape of the neck
have been trimmed.
