TRIMMING PRIVATE AREAS

1.  Volume reduction using trimmer head. Attach guide comb and 

select a long trimming length. Begin trimming, starting at the 

top and working down. Use progressively closer settings to get 

the “look” and length you prefer.

2.  For hard to reach or tight areas, use the detailer head. Always 

pull skin taut. Then slowly move the detailer through area to trim 

until desired look is accomplished.

3.  Shave in your private areas by gently shaving in the desired area 

and always keep the skin taut.

TRIMMING NOSE HAIR

Make sure the nasal passages are clean. Slowly move the ear/nose 

trimmer in and out of each nostril, no more than 1/4-inch deep.

TRIMMING EAR HAIR

Make sure the outer areas of the ears do not contain any wax. Hold 

the ear flat with one hand and carefully insert ear/nose trimmer no 

more than 1/4-inch into the outer ear.  

CAUTION:

 Do not insert the detailer or any other foreign 

object into the inner ear. For hair growing on the outside of the ear, 

simply move the detailer slowly along the edges of the ear.

TRIMMING EYEBROWS

Slowly move detailer to neatly trim stray hairs. For precise, even 

trimming, slowly move the detailer closer or farther away from 

eyebrows to achieve desired length. Do not press against brow as it 

may remove too much hair.

6.  For a neater finished look, attach the 

detail blade. Use this blade for fine, 

detail trimming anywhere it is needed, 

such as at the sideburns near the ears, 

goatees, etc.

DETAILING NECKLINES, 

SIDEBURNS,MUSTACHES & BEARDS

Slowly move trimmer downward on desired areas to neatly 

trim and shape.

TRIMMING ARM & LEG HAIR

Simply glide the trimmer over your arm or leg until desired hair 

length is achieved. The first time you trim the hair, start by using a 

longer guide comb on the trimmer, then use progressively shorter 

settings if a shorter length is preferred.

TRIMMING CHEST & STOMACH

Glide the trimmer over your torso region, in an upward motion until 

desired hair length is achieved. For tight, scratch-free trimming, use 

the #1/4 guide comb.

For the closest look

, after trimming, attach the 

shaver head. The shaver makes for the perfect tool to groom the 

total body. Using the same technique, 

as mentioned prior, you can groom 

wherever you feel a need. Shave against 

hair growth while stretching the skin. 

After every use, remove the shaver foil by 

pressing both side buttons and carefully 

using cleaning brush provided.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

For Household Use Only

RECHARGING

1.  This trimmer is conveniently designed for household use. It 

should be allowed to charge completely before its first use.

2.  Remove the trimmer, USB cable (and/or) power supply unit 

(charger) and accessories from the packing material.

3.  Connect the charging device (USB or charger) to the trimmer.
4.  Plug in the charging device:
 

Charger:

 to any convenient electrical outlet at the correct 

voltage.

 

USB (9893LP Only):

 to certified device such as on a computer, 

receptacle, lamp, class 2 power supply or automotive adapter. 

Warning:

 Never use an unapproved USB source.

5.  When trimmer is low in power, it should be connected to the 

charging device and plugged into a power source to assure 

maximum power is available when it is next used. This 

charger is designed to completely charge the battery without 

overcharging.

6.  Insert only charging device plug supplied by the manufacturer 

into charger receptacle.

TROUBLESHOOTING

If your trimmer does not seem to take a charge, check the following 

before returning it for repair:
1.  Check outlet to make sure it is working by plugging in another 

appliance.

2.  Make sure the outlet simply is not connected to a light switch 

which turns the power at the outlet off when lights are turned 

off.

3.  Be sure the trimmer is properly connected to the charging 

device, all connections are secure and the trimmer is turned off.

SPECIAL FEATURES:

Your trimmer has been designed with several 

advanced features to help you get perfect results 

every time you trim. Your trimmer may be used to 

neatly trim goatees, beards, mustaches, neckline, 

sideburns around the ears and eyebrows, or 

anywhere you may need grooming. It also makes 

a great all-around family trimmer for light haircuts 

and touch ups between trips to the barber or to 

clean up the shape of the neck.

 

Soft-Touch Grip

 allows you to hold the trimmer 

in a comfortable position for precision trimming.

 

A Multi-Position Trimming Guide

 (not included 

in all kits) makes achieving a consistent trim 

easy every time. The guide can be removed and 

reattached without changing the preset cutting 

length, so once you have found the perfect length, 

there’s no guesswork in achieving it every trim. 

The trimming guide is a two-piece assembly, 

consisting of a base and a comb. It should not be disassembled.

To attach the guide, simply slide it on at 

a slight angle and press the release tab 

down to secure in position. To remove 

the guide, gently push up on the release 

tab and slide the assembly away from the 

trimmer. Adjust the trimming length by 

pressing on the thumb lever and moving 

the comb forward or backward to the 

desired setting.

CARING FOR YOUR TRIMMER

OILING BLADES

For best results, use Wahl Clipper Oil on the blades only when 

necessary, or approximately once a month. Motor bearings are 

permanently lubricated—do not attempt to oil. 
When oiling your trimmer, turn the trimmer “ON - I,” hold the unit 

with the blades facing DOWN and squeeze three drops across the 

front of the blade and one drop on each side on the heel of the 

blade. Wipe off excess oil with soft cloth.

NOTICE—DO NOT OVER OIL!

Excessive oiling or application of 

liquids will cause damage if allowed 

to seep back into motor.

BLADE CARE

Trimmer blades have precision-hardened, ground and lapped 

cutting teeth. Blades should be handled carefully and never bumped 

or used to cut dirty or abrasive material. Clean with the included 

brush.

CLEANING/STORAGE

Before storing your trimmer, use the cleaning brush to whisk 

any loose hairs from the unit and the blades. Store unit in such a 

manner so that blades are protected from damage.
When the trimmer is not in use, the trimmer blade guard 

attachment should be in place to protect the blades.
This appliance should be stored in a manner where it is not 

subjected to crushing, heating above 100°C (212°F), or 

incineration.

4.  If your electricity is connected to a master power switch, we 

suggest the trimmer be disconnected from the charger anytime 

the master switch is off. Leaving the unit plugged into a dead 

outlet or an unplugged charger will drain the battery.

5.  If trimmer does not run and it is completely charged, turn the 

unit “ON - I” and pinch or push the blades manually. (Oil may 

have dried out between the blades, so they may be temporarily 

stuck together.)

TRIMMING AND EDGING YOUR 

BEARD

The following are suggested trimming steps and trimmer positions. 

You may find different procedures work better for you.
1.  Comb your beard in the direction that it grows to help reveal 

stray hairs that may be longer than the others.

2.  Attach a guide to trim and taper your beard. Begin with a guide 

of a long trimming length. Trim toward your chin in smooth, 

overlapping strokes, following the lay of your beard. If you trim 

against the way your beard naturally lays, the trimmer will cut 

the hair much shorter.
Change the trimming guides to progressively shorter lengths 

until you reach the desired length of beard. You may wish to 

trim closer near the ear and down 

under the chin, changing to a longer 

guide toward the front of the face and 

point of your chin.

3.  To cut the outline of your beard, 

remove the trimming guide comb. 

Starting under your chin and working 

back toward your jawbone and ears, 

cut the outer perimeter of your beard 

underneath the jawbone. Continue 

the line all the way up to the ears and 

hairline.

4.  Accentuate your beard line by using the 

trimmer in a downward motion. Start 

at the line you’ve created and, working 

from the chin back toward the ears, 

trim the area right under your beard 

line. 

5.  Define the upper part of your beard 

using the same technique.

FADE CUT

1.  Start at the temple and cut all the way around the head to 

establish the ultimate location of the fade line. Always cut 

against the grain for the shortest cut. Don’t force the blade 

through the hair. Let the trimmer do the work.

2.  Next, cut around the head again and up the nape of the neck 

to the fade line, brushing away the cut hair as you go. Pull the 

scalp taut with the thumb for the closest cut. Turn the trimmer 

upside down when necessary to keep cutting against the grain. 

Make sure both sides of the head are even.

3.  For the top of the head, cut with the grain using the individual 

guide comb attachments. The smaller the number of the comb, 

the shorter the cut. Comb or brush the hair as you cut for an 

even end result.

4.  To complete the fade, blend the hair at the fade line by trimming 

up and out across the line and against the grain all the way 

around the head. Then, repeat all around, turning the trimmer 

upside down and cutting downward. The final objective is to 

blend the hair so there is no real line, just a perfect fade from 

bald to very short hair. You can achieve this by using the #1 

guide comb attachment. Continue combing and cutting until you 

achieve the desired effect.

5.  To create a part, pick a spot off-center. Pull the scalp tight and 

with the end of the blade perpendicular to the head, move the 

trimmer back and forth to cut a line. Comb through it and cut 

again to make sure the cut is precise.
