OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance is used on Alternating Current 120V AC 60 hertz. To reduce the
risk of electric shock, this appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider
than the other). As a safety feature, this plug will fit in the 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 qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not attempt to
defeat this safety feature.
Remove the plastic head guard protecting the blades. Apply oil across the
blades; wipe off any excess with a dry cloth. Plug the clipper into electrical
outlet; operate on voltage specified for clipper. Push the ON/OFF switch to the
ON position. When finished cutting hair, remove trimmings from the blades
using the cleaning brush. Wipe the housing clean with a dry cloth. Before
replacing head guard, apply a few drops of lubricating oil to the blades to
prevent any rust from occurring.
This quality haircutting instrument has been manufactured with extreme care.
It has been thoroughly tested and inspected before reaching the professional
user. As with all precision instruments, there may be a period of breaking in.
If the speed of the motor varies (as indicated by a change in sound or pitch),
it is an indication of a change in position of the clipper or a fluctuation in line
voltage. When the clipper is lubricated in accordance with instructions, it will
deliver ample power and speed for professional hair cutting requirements.
