How to Give a Haircut
1.
Start at the back of the head. Holding
the clipper as shown, lightly stroke
upward 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 whether 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 cut the hair
at the top of
the head, hold the hair between your
fingers and cut a small amount at a
time. Cut from the front to the back.
4.
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. Move
the clipper from the back of the head
to the front. This creates a tapered
effect around
the ears and
back of the
neck.
5.
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

Line Cord Safety Tips
NOTE: This appliance has a polarized
plug (one blade is wider than the
other). As a safety feature, this plug
will fit in a polarized outlet only one
way. If the plug does not fit fully in
the outlet, reverse the plug.
If it still does not fit, contact a quali-
fied electrician. Do not attempt to
defeat this safety feature.
1.
To insert plug, grasp it firmly and
guide it into outlet.
2.
To disconnect the appliance, grasp
the plug and remove it from outlet.
Do not pull or yank on the cord or
appliance.
Do not wrap the cord
around the appliance.
Blade Care
The life of your clippers will depend
on frequency of use, care, hair type
and condition. The HC-822 blades
are lubed for life and do not require
additional oiling.
Before Cutting Hair
1.
Make sure your hair clipper is
runnning
smoothly
with a slight
vibration.
2.
Place the
cape around
the neck of
the person
whose hair
is being
trimmed or
cut.
3.
This person
should be
seated so that the top of their 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. Although the hair
clipper may be used with the left
or right hand, using it right-handed
allows you to access the taper
lever more easily.
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 numbered
and marked with 1/8” (3mm),
1/4” (6mm), 3/8” (9mm), 1/2”
(12mm), 5/8”(16mm), 3/4”(18mm),
7/8”(22mm), and 1”(25mm).
2.
While the clipper is off, hold the
trimming guide with the teeth up.
Slide the trimming guide onto the
blades until it locks into place.
How to Use
Usage Tips
Performance Guarantee
giving quick
trims, you
may prefer
using your
hair clipper
without the
trimming
guide.
6.
The adjustable
taper control
lever allows
you to gradu-
ally change
the closeness of your cut, either
with or without a trimming guide.
When the lever is fully forward
the blades will give you the clos-
est cut. Moving the lever gradu-
ally backward
increases the
cut length.
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,
remove the trimming guide and
use the barber’s comb. Trim a
little at a time until a flat look is
achieved.
Trimming Beards &
Mustaches
1.
Comb your beard in the direction
it grows.
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.
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.
2.
Determine
the length
you want
the beard
to remain,
and fit the
appropriate
trimming
guide.
Remember
the 1/8”
(3mm) guide
will give you the shortest beard
while the 1” (25mm) will give you
the longest. If you want a longer
beard you can use the styling
comb as a trimming guide.
3.
Start trimming under your chin and
work toward your ear and beard
line. Cut in different directions for a
uniform trim.
4.
Lightly stroke the edge of your
mustache in a downward
movement.
