6.2 TURNING THE DEVICE ON AND OFF:
The hair clipper can be turned on and off by pushing the on/off switch
ON/OFF
upwards (
ON
position). The green
indicator light goes on.
To turn it off, push the on/off switch
ON/OFF
downwards to the
OFF
position.
The green indicator light goes out.
6.3 ATTACHING AND REMOVING THE ATTACHMENT COMB:
1.
Place the attachment comb to be used onto the attachment comb holder (1). The tip of the attachment comb
should be facing the front. Every attachment comb (10-16) has two notches in the side holders, which must
audibly lock into place when attached to the pins. Push the attachment comb over the blade and guide the side
holders carefully over the pins on the hair clipper. The attachment comb must audibly click into place.
2.
To take it off, push the holder outwards slightly until the attachment comb comes off.
6.4 RE-LUBRICATING THE BLADE:
1.
After repeated use, the blades should be re-lubricated to ensure that the hair clipper functions properly.
2.
Do not use petroleum-based hair care products. Do not use fat or oils that contain kerosene or solvents. The
solvents evaporate and the remaining thick oil could slow down the blade movements. Only use the supplied
lubrication oil.
3.
To lubricate the blades, let the hair clipper run and put a couple of drops of oil onto the blades. Turn the hair
clipper off and wipe off any remaining oil from the blades.
7. CUTTING HAIR
7.1 Hairdresser shears and Comb:
Use the hairdresser shears (9) to pre-cut hair or to refine or improve the haircut when finished.
Use the comb (8) to comb the hair and to achieve a straight cut when used together with the hair clipper.
7.2 INFORMATION TO MECHANICALLY CUTTING HAIR:
7.2.1 General Information
Before you begin to cut the hair:
1.
Inspect the hair clipper prior to each use. There should not be any dirt build-up in between the blades and the
lubricating oil must be distributed evenly over the blades so that proper functioning can be guaranteed.
Excessive lubricating oil should be wiped off prior to use.
2.
The person whose hair is being cut should sit at eye height to you in order to ensure better control of the hair
clipper. This also prevents muscle cramps and unnecessary strain for the user of the hair clipper.
3.
Comb the hair thoroughly before cutting.
4.
Place a cape over the shoulders of the person whose hair is being cut.
7.2.2 Tips for Cutting Hair
1.
Cutting hair with this device requires practice. Therefore, do not cut off too much hair at the beginning so that
mistakes can be corrected.
2.
Comb the hair regularly in order to keep control of the overall cut.
3.
Begin with a longer cutting length and shorten it continuously. This will guarantee a clean haircut and will
prevent the hair clipper from becoming jammed.
7.2.3 Determining the cutting length
1.
When using the attachment combs, the hair can be cut to the following lengths:
a.
Attachment comb 1
1 mm (12)
b.
Attachment comb 3 3 mm (16)
c.
Attachment comb 6 6 mm (11)
d.
Attachment comb 9 9 mm (15)
e.
Attachment comb 12 12 mm (14)
f.
Attachment comb 15 15 mm (10)
g.
Attachment comb 18 18 mm (13)
2.
In order to cut to a length of less than 1 mm, use the hair clipper without an attachment comb.
7.3 INSTRUCTIONS FOR MECHANICALLY CUTTING HAIR:
7.3.1 Step 1 - Neck
1.
Attach the attachment comb 3 (3 mm).
2.
Hold the cutting edge of the hair clipper
upright and begin cutting at the base of the neck in the middle of the
head.
3.
Always hold your hand steady when cutting and place the attachment comb gently on the skin. Do not push the
attachment comb onto the scalp in order to avoid abrasions or other injuries.
4.
Guide the hair clipper
slowly over the hair towards the top and the outside of the head. At the beginning, only
cut off a little hair.
