of the head to the
back. This creates
a tapered effect
around the ear and
back of the neck.
4.
The final trim can
be made with the
hair clipper or the
included scissors.
Make sure to check over the entire head
for any uneven areas. For styled hair or
giving quick trims, you may prefer using
your hair clipper without the trimming
guide.
Very Short Styles
1.
Using the 1/2” (12mm) trimming guide,
hold the comb flat against the head and
move the hair clipper from the back of
the neck to the crown of the head.
2.
Cut in a similar manner from the side to
the top of the head. Then cut from the
front to the crown
of the head.
3.
If a “Flat Top” style
is desired, then
remove the trim-
ming guide and use
the barber’s comb.
Trim a little at a
time until the “flat
look” is achieved.

How to Use
Before Cutting Hair
1.
Make sure your hair clipper is operating
correctly.
2.
The vacuum feature will not function
properly if the hair chamber is removed.
3.
The 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
perform 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 provides
comfortable
cutting control.
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” (6mm), 3/8” (9mm), 1/2” (12mm),
3/4”(18mm), and 1”(25mm).
2.
Hold the trimming guide with the teeth
up. Slide the trimming guide onto the
blades until it locks into place.
Giving A Comfortable,
Even Cut
Allow the clipper to cut through the hair
without moving it too quickly. Moving the
clipper too quickly may create a pulling
sensation.
As the clipper cuts the hair, the vacuum
sucks the clippings through the inlet into
the hair chamber.
Use short strokes when cutting, and initially
use the longest trimming guide. You can
always use a closer trimming guide later if
you want a closer cut.
How to Give a Haircut
1.
Start at the back of
the head. Holding
the clipper as
shown, lightly
stroke upwards
making sure you
are taking off the
desired amount of
hair. Work your way
up to the crown of the head in layers.
When completed, comb the area to
remove any loose hair and to determine if
you need any further cutting.
2.
Repeat the same procedure for each side
of the head. Make sure the length of the
hair is trimmed to the same length on
both sides of the head.
3.
To trim around the ears, remove the
trimming guide and replace with either
the left or right ear
guide. The shorter
guide teeth are
designed to be
toward the ear.
