6. Be careful not to puncture the screens on the hair chamber while emptying the unit.
7. The mesh side of the vacuum chamber can be opened to aid in hair removal and
cleaning of the mesh.
The mesh can be brushed or rinsed under water to be cleaned; however it needs to be
completely dry before it is reattached to the unit.
8. Once finished emptying, place the chamber back onto the unit by putting the scoop
end in first and then gently rotating the mesh end back into place until it clicks.
for any uneven areas. For styled hair or giving quick trims, you may prefer using
your hair clipper without the trimming guide.
Use the clipper without a guide comb for close trimming around the base and
sides of the neck.
To produce a clean straight line at the sideburns, reverse the hair clipper.
Place the reversed clipper at right angles to the head, tips of the blades lightly
touching the skin and then work downwards.
Longer Styles
For optimum performance do not trim hair 18mm or longer with one pass of the
clipper.
When cutting hair 18mm or longer use a finger on your free hand in between the
comb and clipper to guide hair into the blade by applying slight pressure. As you
move the clipper up to cut, your finger will help keep the longer hairs from slipping
away before they can be cut. If the hair extends well past the hair collection
chamber opening, place your finger on top of the chamber near the opening.
Short Tapered Styles – “Flat Topsand Short Cuts
Starting with the longest guide comb attached (25mm),
cut from the back of the neck to the crown. Hold the guide
comb flat against the head and slowly move the clipper
through the 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 and level with the sides.
To give a “flat top” look, the hair on top of the head must be cut over the top of a
flat comb.
Use a closer guide comb to taper the hair down to the neckline as desired.
Emptying Hair Chamber:
1. Turn off the unit.
2. Hold the unit from the back end of unit, cradling the bottom with one hand.
3. Push the chamber release button with your gripping hand thumb and with your
other hand rotate and then lift the chamber off.
4. To empty contents grip the chamber securely in hand with opening facing down
over desired collection container. Shake chamber up and down, but stopping
rapidly on the down stroke. This may have to be repeated several times.
5. You may have to vigorously shake the chamber or scoop out some of the
compacted hair clippings.
Giving A Comfortable, Even Cut
Allow the clipper to cut through the hair without moving it too quickly. Moving the
clipper too quickly may create a pulling sensation. As the clipper cuts the hair, the
vacuum sucks the clippings through the inlet into the hair chamber.
Use short strokes when cutting, and initially use the longest trimming guide. You
can always use a closer trimming guide later if you want a closer cut.
How to Give a Haircut
STEP 1 – Nape of the neck
Set the comb to 3mm or 6mm.
Hold the clipper with the blade teeth pointing upwards. Begin
starting at the centre of the head at the base of the neck.
Slowly lift the clipper, working upwards and outwards
through the hair, trimming just a little at a time.
STEP 2 – Back of the head
With the comb set at 12mm or 18mm, cut the hair at the back of the head.
STEP 3 – Side of the head
With the comb set at 3mm or 6mm, trim sideburns. Then change to the longer
9mm guide comb and continue to cut up to the top of the head.
To trim around the ears, remove the trimming guide and replace with either the
left or right ear guide. The shorter guide teeth are designed to be toward the ear.
Move the clipper from the front of the head to the back. This creates a tapered
effect around the ear and back of the neck.
STEP 4 – Top of the head
With the 18mm or 22mm guide comb attached, cut hair
on top of the head against the direction in which the hair
normally grows.
Note: For longer desired lengths of more than 22mm, place
finger over hairs and guide into the guide comb and blade to
better guide the hair trimmings into the vacuum chamber.
Always work from the back of the head.
STEP 5 – The finishing touches
The final trim can be made with the hair clipper or the
included scissors. Make sure to check over the entire head
