Operating Instructions

Using the Taper Lever

The adjustable taper lever allows for easy blending and fading. Move the lever up for a closer cut and down for a longer cut. This feature is essential for achieving seamless transitions between different hair lengths.

General Haircutting Tips

• Always start with clean, dry hair.
• For best results, cut against the direction of hair growth.
• Use a larger guide comb first, then gradually switch to smaller sizes if a shorter cut is desired.
• Overlap strokes to ensure an even cut.
• Use the barber cape to keep hair off clothing.
• For blending, use the taper lever to gradually adjust the cutting length.
• For detailing and outlining, remove the guide comb and use the bare blade carefully.

Maintenance

• Cleaning: After each use, brush loose hairs from the blades using the cleaning brush. For a more thorough cleaning, the blades can be removed (refer to the full user guide for detailed instructions) and rinsed, then dried completely before reattaching.

• Oiling: To maintain optimal cutting performance and extend blade life, oil the blades after every few haircuts. Apply 2-3 drops of Wahl clipper oil across the top of the blades and along the sides. Turn the clipper on for a few seconds to distribute the oil, then wipe off any excess.

• Storage: Store the clipper and all accessories in the provided handled storage case in a dry, cool place.
