Setup Guide

1. Initial Charging

1. Before first use, ensure the clipper is fully charged.
2. Connect the USB charging cable to the clipper's charging port and plug the other end into a compatible USB power adapter (DC5V 1A recommended).
3. The LED display will indicate charging status. A full charge takes approximately 3 hours.
4. Once fully charged, disconnect the clipper from the power source.

2. Attaching Guide Combs

1. Ensure the clipper is turned off before attaching or detaching guide combs.
2. Select the desired cutting length guide comb (1.5mm, 3mm, 4.5mm, 6mm, 10mm, or 13mm).
3. Align the guide comb with the clipper blade and push it firmly until it clicks into place.
4. To remove, gently pull the comb away from the blade.

3. Blade Preparation

1. Before each use, ensure the blades are clean and lightly oiled. Although lubricant is not included due to airline regulations, applying a small amount of clipper oil to the blades will ensure smooth operation and prolong blade life.

Operating Instructions

1. Powering On/Off

• To turn on the clipper, slide the power switch to the "ON" position. The LED display will light up.
• To turn off, slide the power switch to the "OFF" position.

2. Hair Cutting

1. Ensure hair is clean and dry (for dry cutting) or evenly damp (for wet cutting).
2. Attach the desired guide comb for your preferred hair length. For shorter cuts, you may use the clipper without a guide comb (0.5-1mm).
3. Hold the clipper with the blades pointing downwards and the flat top of the comb resting against the scalp.
4. Move the clipper slowly against the direction of hair growth.
5. For blending and tapering, use different sized guide combs or adjust the taper lever (if present, not explicitly mentioned but common on clippers).
6. Regularly clear accumulated hair from the blades during use to maintain optimal performance.

3. Corded Operation

• If the battery runs low during use, you can connect the USB charging cable and continue using the clipper while it charges.

Care and Maintenance

1. Cleaning the Blades

1. After each use, turn off the clipper and remove the guide comb.
2. Use the provided cleaning brush to brush away any loose hair from the blades and the clipper body.
3. The blades are designed for washing under water. You may rinse the blade head under running water. Ensure the clipper body remains dry.
4. Allow the blades to air dry completely before reattaching the protective cap or storing.

2. Oiling the Blades

1. For optimal performance and longevity, apply 1-2 drops of clipper oil (not included) to the blades after every few uses, or if the clipper feels sluggish.
2. Turn the clipper on for a few seconds to distribute the oil evenly.
3. Wipe off any excess oil with a soft cloth.

3. Storage

• Store the clipper in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture.
• Always place the protective cap over the blades when not in use to prevent damage.
• Keep out of reach of children.

Troubleshooting

User Tips

• For best results, always start with a longer guide comb and gradually switch to shorter ones until the desired length is achieved.
• When cutting, move the clipper at a steady, even pace to ensure a consistent cut.
• Clean and oil the blades regularly to maintain sharpness and prevent hair pulling.
• If using for a long session, consider using the clipper while plugged in to preserve battery life.
