4. Operating Instructions

General Use

The BaBylissPRO FX787S is ideal for crispy edge-ups, hard lines, and all other detail work. Its exposed T-blade provides excellent visibility for precise trimming.

Blade Adjustment (Zero-Gapping)

For the closest possible cut, the trimmer can be zero-gapped. This process involves adjusting the fixed blade closer to the moving blade. Refer to the included zero-gap tool and instructions for detailed guidance. Exercise caution during adjustment to prevent skin irritation or cuts.

Techniques for Best Results

• Edge-ups: Hold the trimmer at a slight angle against the skin and use light, controlled strokes to create sharp lines around the hairline, beard, or mustache.
• Detail Work: Utilize the 360-degree exposed blade to navigate intricate areas, ensuring clear visibility for precise detailing.
• Hard Lines: Apply gentle pressure and move the trimmer in a smooth, continuous motion to achieve defined lines.

5. Care and Maintenance

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your trimmer.

Cleaning the Blades

1. Turn off and unplug the trimmer before cleaning.
2. Use the provided cleaning brush to remove loose hair from the blades.
3. For a more thorough clean, use a clipper cleaning spray (e.g., Andis Cool Care Plus) to disinfect, lubricate, and prevent rust.
4. Ensure blades are dry before storage or next use.

Lubrication

Regularly oil the blades with clipper oil to maintain smooth operation and prevent wear. Apply a few drops of oil to the teeth of the blades after each use or as needed.
