Mains hair clipper instructions
8
Crew Cuts and Short Cuts.
Starting with the longest guide comb, cut from the back of the neck to the crown. Hold
the guide comb at against the head and slowly move the clipper through hair.
Use the same procedure from the lower side to the upper side of the head. Then cut the
hair against the direction in which it grows, from the front to the crown.
To give a at top look, the hair on the top of the head must be over the top of a at comb,
rather than using the guide comb.
Use closer cutting guide combs to taper the hair down the neckline, as desired.
Comb hair and check for uneven spots. Outline sideburns and neckline as previously
described.
Taper Lever (Not included in all Wahl kits)
The taper lever adds versatility to your clipper by allowing you to gradually change the
closeness of your cut without a guide comb. When the lever is in the uppermost position,
the blades will give you closest cut and leave the hair very short. Pushing the lever
downward gradually increases the cutting length. In its lowest position, the taper lever
will leave the hair approximately the same length as the 1/8” comb.
The taper lever will also extend the use of your blades since a different cutting edge is
used in each setting. In addition, if extremely heavy haircutting has jammed the blades,
it will help you remove hair that has become wedged between two blades without
removing the blades.
While the clipper is running, rapidly move the lever from close cut to longer cut a couple
of times. Doing this each time you’ve nished using your clipper will help keep the blades
clear of cut hair. If your clipper stops cutting and this does not help, your cutting blades
may be dull, either replace them or return to Wahl for sharpening.
