Before first use, ensure the clipper is ready for operation.

Follow these steps for effective hair clipping:

1. Prepare Hair: Ensure hair is clean and dry before clipping. For best results, comb the hair to remove any tangles.
2. Turn On: Switch the clipper on using the power switch.
3. Begin Clipping: Start clipping from the nape of the neck, moving upwards against the direction of hair growth. Use smooth, even strokes.
