Operating Instructions

Attaching Guide Combs

Guide combs are essential for achieving desired hair lengths.

1. Select the appropriate guide comb size for your desired hair length.
2. Align the guide comb with the clipper blade and firmly snap it into place. Ensure it is securely attached before use.
3. To remove, gently lift the back of the comb and slide it off the blade.

Using the Taper Lever

The 5-position taper control lever allows for precise blending and fine-tuning of cutting lengths without changing guide combs.

• Move the lever up for a shorter cut and down for a longer cut.
• The lever extends up to 4.2 mm, providing a wide range of taper control lengths.
• Utilize the markings on the lever for consistent length adjustments.

Corded and Cordless Operation

The BaBylissPRO LithiumFX clipper offers flexibility with both corded and cordless operation.

• Cordless Use: Ensure the clipper is fully charged. Turn on the clipper using the redesigned on/off switch.
• Corded Use: If the battery is low or you prefer continuous power, connect the FXCORD charging adapter to the clipper and a power outlet. The clipper can be used while charging.

Hair Cutting Techniques

For best results, follow these general guidelines:

• Ensure hair is clean and dry before cutting.
• Always start with a longer guide comb and gradually switch to shorter ones if needed.
• Use smooth, overlapping strokes against the direction of hair growth.
• Regularly clear hair from the blade during use to maintain cutting efficiency.

Maintenance

Cleaning the Blades

Regular cleaning ensures optimal performance and longevity of your clipper.

1. After each use, turn off the clipper and remove any attached guide comb.
2. Use the provided cleaning brush to brush away loose hair from the blades and the clipper body.
3. For a more thorough cleaning, the blades can be carefully removed (refer to specific instructions for blade removal if necessary).
4. Wipe the clipper body with a clean, damp cloth. Do not submerge the clipper in water.

Oiling the Blades

To maintain cutting efficiency and prevent blade wear, oil the blades regularly.

1. After cleaning, apply 2-3 drops of the provided blade oil across the top of the blades.
2. Turn the clipper on for a few seconds to allow the oil to distribute evenly.
3. Wipe off any excess oil with a clean cloth.

Battery Care

To maximize the life of your lithium-ion battery:

• Avoid completely draining the battery before recharging.
• Store the clipper in a cool, dry place when not in use.
