Operation
The fur to be cut must be dry and clean. Brush the
fur through to remove any knots.
•
Remove the blade guard  from the cutting
head 1.
• Place the required trimming guide ( - )
with the prongs facing upwards on the cutting
head 1 and thereby press the fl ap of the trim-
ming guide down fi rmly onto the lower metal
edge of the cutting head (see illustration).
• Ensure that the trimming guide has properly
engaged and is secured before starting to cut/
trim the fur.
Note:
It is advisable to fi rst trim a small area so as to test
the individual comb attachments. Start with a comb
attachment for long hair (1/2“
 or 3/8“ )
and, if necessary, use a shorter one. The comb
attachments permit cutting lengths from 3 to 13 mm.
• Switch the appliance on by sliding the On/Off
switch 3 to the position „ON“.
• Slowly run the appliance through the fur against
the direction of hair growth. Hold the appliance
so that the trimming guide is as fl at as possible
against the animal.
• In addition, with the adjustment switch 4 the
cutting length of the cutter head 1 can be
adjusted in steps (up to 2 mm) without having to
exchange the comb attachment. To do this, slide
the adjustment switch 4 backwards to increase
the cutting length in steps.
With this the cutting length of the respectively
attached comb attachment is also increased by
up to 2 mm.
Slide the adjustment switch 4 forward again to
reduce the cutting length or to bring the comb
attachment back into its original position.
• Through removal of the individual trimming
guide, i.e. using only the cutting head 1 itself,
you can cut clean contours.
• After use, switch the appliance off by sliding the
On/Off switch 3 to the position „OFF“.
