Use the Thumb Wheel to set the trimmer
comb to the desired length setting.It’s a
good idea to begin trimming at one of
the longest settings (4 or 5) to avoid
accidentally trimming hair too short.As
you become familiar with the settings,
you can then select your desired length
setting.
■
Turn the unit on.
■
Place the flat top of the trimmer comb
against the skin.
■
Slowly slide the trimmer through hair.
Repeat from different directions as
necessary.
■
If hair builds up in the trimmer comb
during the trimming process,shut the
unit off,pull off the adjustable trimmer
comb and brush it off.

For an even closer look and precise
shaping,remove the adjustable trimmer
comb and trim the hairs along the outer
edge.

When you are finished,turn the trimmer
off, clean it,and return it to its storage
pouch.

Only the adjustable trimmer comb and
cutter assembly may be removed from
the trimmers for cleaning.

Cleaning should only be done with a
soft brush,such as the brush supplied
with the units.
■
Do not use harsh or corrosive cleaners
on the units or their cutters.
■
Do not apply pressure or hard objects
to cutters.
■
Do not disassemble cutter set.
Oiling the Blades
Your trimmer is fitted with high-quality
stainless steel cutting blades,which
will remain permanently lubricated in a
dry environment. Your BKT-1000 will
never need oiling.
If you use your BKT-2000 in the sho w-
er or rinse it under running water, you
will periodically need to add a drop of
oil to the cutting blades to keep them
operating at peak performance.Simply
remove the adjustable trimmer comb
and place a drop of oil on the teeth of
the cutter assembly.
Oil cautions
■
Use only the light-grade oil supplied
or a suitable alternative like sewing
machine oil—these oils will not
evaporate and will not slow down
the blades.
■
Do not use hair oil,grease,or any
oil mixed with kerosene or solvent,
as the solvent will evaporate and
leave the thick oil,slowing the
blades.
