Attachment Combs
These attachment combs are for use with
the 30mm trimmer blade only. To attach,
gently slide the comb over the trimmer
blade. An arrow on the side of the comb
indicates the length which the hair will be cut.
Here's what the length settings mean in
inches:
Each comb attachment is marked
accordingly on its middle surface.
When first using, you may want to begin
with the longest attachment comb to avoid
trimming hair too short. Cut the hair
gradually using short strokes only to work
gradually over the entire head. Always take
off a little hair at a time, you can always trim
off additional hair later. As you work, comb
the hair frequently back into the style that
you are cutting.
Best Technique
Here are a few tips for trimming the various
parts of your face, head and body (For guide
only).
To Thin & Taper The Beard &
Mustache
■ Before you begin, comb your hair in the
direction in which it grows so that the
hairs are at their maximum height and
facing the same direction.
■ Attach an attachment comb to the
30mm Trimmer Blade.
■ Place the flat top of the trimmer comb
against the skin.
■ Slowly slide the trimmer through the
hair. Repeat from different directions as
necessary.
■ If hair builds up in the trimmer comb
during the trimming process, switch the
unit off, pull off the comb and brush/
rinse off.
To Define The Beard &
Mustache Line
■ Hold trimmer with 18mm Trimmer Blade
facing you.
■ Start with edge of beard/moustache line
and gently lower the Trimmer Blade onto
your skin. Use motions towards edge of
beard/moustache line to trim to desired
locations in facial area and away from
beard in neck area.
To Cut Short Hair Styles
■ Hairs should be dry and without any
waxes or lotions before using trimmer.
■ Comb your hair in the direction in which
it grows so that the hairs are at their
maximum height and facing the same
direction.
■ Place the flat top of the trimmer comb
against the skin.
■ Slowly slide the trimmer through the
hair. Repeat from different directions as
necessary.
■ If hair builds up in the trimmer comb
during the trimming process, switch the
unit off, pull off the comb and brush/rinse
off.
To Draw Trim Lines Into Head
Hair
■ Attach the 30mm or 38mm Trimmer
Blade.
■ With blade facing the area where you
would like to start your trim line, gently
lower onto head.
■ Move the trimmer gently along your
head to create the style you require.
! For more precise designs, attach the
18mm trimmer blade.
Trimming Edge Of Sideburns
■ Using the 18mm Trimmer Blade hold the
trimmer with blade facing you.
■ Start with edge of sideburn, and with the
cutting blades resting lightly against your
skin, use motions towards edge of side
burn line to trim to desired locations in
facial area.
Trimming The Nape Of Your
Neck
■ You will need a hand mirror for this
operation if performing it alone - or get
your partner to help!
■ Before you begin, attach the 38mm T-
Trimmer Blade.
■ Use your fingers to lift the hair at the
base of your head up off the neck. Your
index finger should be covering the roots
of the hairs you are lifting to prevent
accidental removal by trimmer.
■ Using your other hand, hold the trimmer
to the base of your neck with the cutting
unit facing up, and move the trimmer up
the length of the neck until the unit
touches your finger covering the hair
roots at the base of your head. Be sure to
move the unit slowly when performing
this operation and to keep the hair roots
at the base of your head out of the way
of the trimmer.
