The blades of your Hair Cutter should be
oiled before each use. Place a few drops of
oil on the teeth of blades. Only use the oil
supplied with your Sunbeam Hair Cutter.
If the blades are not cleaned and oiled
regularly, or if you do not use sufficient oil,
the blades will begin to wear and become
blunt. This may result in hair catching
between the blades, which may cause
discomfort.
The blades of your Hair Cutter are carefully
aligned at the time of manufacture.
However, should the blades be bumped
during transit or removed for cleaning, they
will need to be realigned. To realign the
blades, see the instructions under
Care and
Cleaning.
Before using your Hair Cutter
The first time you use your Hair Cutter,
cut a small section of hair to familiarise
yourself with the cutting length of each
comb guide. The comb guides are clearly
numbered and marked with a measurement
which indicates the length of hair
remaining when cutting with each guide.
Sunbeam recommends that you start with
the # 7 comb, then change to the # 6
comb and so on, until you achieve the
desired hair length.
1. Ensure that the cutter is clean and there is
no hair in the blades.
2. Place the person whose hair is about to be
cut so that the top of their head is at eye
level.
3. Comb hair free of tangles. Do not dampen
hair. If hair is longer than 10cm, it might
be easier to cut the hair to a manageable
length using the barber’s comb and scissors
provided before using the cutter. Use the
hair clips to section hair if required.
4. Select the comb guide for the desired
length. To attach the comb guide, hold the
cutter with the top side facing towards you
and the blades pointing upward. Remove
the blade cover and snap the comb guide
into position underneath the blades.
5. Insert the plug into a 230-240V power
outlet and turn the power on.
6. Turn the switch on the side of the cutter to
the on (I) position.
