4.2 Attaching Combs

1. Ensure the clipper is turned off.

5. Operating Instructions

5.1 Powering On/Off

• To turn the clipper on, press the power button located on the front of the device.
• To turn the clipper off, press the power button again.

5.2 Hair Cutting Techniques

Always ensure hair is clean and dry before clipping. For best results, comb hair in the direction of growth before cutting.

• Using Attachment Combs: Select the desired comb length. Hold the clipper with the blade flat against the head and move it slowly against the direction of hair growth. Overlap strokes to ensure an even cut.
• Blending and Fading (with BLENDING BLADE): Use the BLENDING BLADE for seamless transitions. Start with a longer comb and gradually switch to shorter combs or use the blade directly for skin-close results.
• Clipper Over Comb (with MAGIC BLADE): Use a barber comb to lift sections of hair away from the scalp. Glide the clipper over the comb, using the comb as a guide for the desired length.
• Detailing and Edging: Remove the attachment comb. Use the edge of the blade to create clean lines around the neckline, sideburns, and ears.

6. Maintenance

Regular cleaning and maintenance will ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your clipper.

6.1 Cleaning the Blades

1. Turn off and unplug the clipper.
2. Remove the blade set as described in Section 4.3.
3. Use the provided cleaning brush to remove any loose hair from the blades and the clipper body.

6.2 Oiling the Blades

It is crucial to oil the blades regularly (after every few uses or as needed) to maintain cutting efficiency and prevent rust.

1. Ensure the clipper is clean and dry.
