4. Installation Instructions

Replacing your shaver heads is a straightforward process. Follow these steps carefully:

1. Preparation: Ensure your electric shaver is turned off and unplugged from any power source.
2. Open Shaver Head Unit: Depending on your shaver model, you will either press a release button or twist the retaining ring to open the shaver head unit.
3. Remove Old Heads: Carefully lift out the old shaver heads (cutters and combs). Note their orientation if possible, though the new heads are typically designed for easy fitment.
4. Clean Shaver: While the heads are removed, take the opportunity to thoroughly clean any hair clippings or debris from the shaver's internal components using a small brush.
5. Insert New Heads: Place the new ShaverAid HQ4 replacement heads into the shaver head unit. Ensure each cutter is properly seated within its corresponding comb. The heads should fit snugly.
6. Secure Shaver Head Unit: Close the shaver head unit, ensuring it clicks securely into place.
7. Lubrication (Optional but Recommended): Apply a small drop of shaver oil (not included) to each new head before the first use and after cleaning. This helps reduce friction and prolongs blade life.

5. Operating Instructions

Once the new ShaverAid HQ4 heads are installed, your shaver is ready for use. For best results:

• Ensure your face is clean and dry before shaving.
• Move the shaver in small, circular motions against the direction of hair growth.
• Apply gentle pressure; excessive force is not necessary and can cause irritation.
• For optimal performance, allow your skin a few weeks to adjust to new shaver heads.

6. Maintenance

Regular cleaning and maintenance will extend the life of your ShaverAid HQ4 replacement heads and ensure consistent shaving performance.

1. Daily Cleaning: After each shave, open the shaver head unit and tap out any loose hair clippings. You can also rinse the heads under warm running water if your shaver is waterproof.
2. Thorough Cleaning: Periodically, disassemble the shaver heads (cutters and combs) and clean them thoroughly with the provided brush or by rinsing under water. Allow all parts to air dry completely before reassembling.
3. Lubrication: Apply a small drop of shaver oil to each cutter and comb assembly once a week, or as needed, especially after thorough cleaning. This lubrication helps maintain smooth operation and sharpness.
4. Replacement Schedule: For optimal shaving performance, it is recommended to replace shaver heads every 12-18 months, or sooner if you notice a decrease in cutting efficiency or increased irritation.
