Cleaning Your Shaver
To assure smooth,efficent performance
it is important to clean your shaver.
Grip the head assembly by the three ridges
and pull it off the
shaver. Use the
cleaning brush to
sweep out the inter-
nal part of the head
assembly and the
hair pocket area,
where 3 shaver spin-
dles are located.
Clean under the cut -
ter assembly at least
once a week. Open
the shaver head and
unscrew the center
screw knob to remove
the cutter retainer
assembly. Then simply
brush out the hairs
and dust. After clean-
ing,replace the cutter
assembly.
!
Important:
Make sure to align the two
locating holes in the Cutter Retainer
assembly with the pins in the Head Frame
Assembly. (See illustration A).Then tighten
center screw knob to lock the cutters
into place.
Replace head assembly on the shaver
simply by pushing it onto the shaver.
Cover shaver head with plastic headguard
between uses.When removing the head-
guard or placing it back onto the shaver,
do not apply pressure to floating cutter
surfaces,as you may damage them.

When is it Time to Replace
Your Heads and Cutters?
It is very important to replace your heads
and cutters when necessary to ensure a
close,comfortable shave without irrita-
tion. We recommend they be replaced
every 12 months.Here are some signs of
head and cutter wear, indicating that
replacement is needed.
Irritation
As the heads get excessively worn you may
experience some skin irritation.This would
be especially noticeable when you apply
after-shave lotion.
Pulling
When the cutters wear you may feel a sense
of pulling and a loss of closeness when you
shave.This is an indication that it is time to
replace your heads and cutters.
