4.3 General Cutting Tips
- Ensure hair is clean and dry before cutting.
- Always start with a longer guard length and gradually reduce it if a shorter cut is desired.
- Use the clippers to create sharp lines and designs as needed.
- Move the clipper against the direction of hair growth for an even cut.
- Regularly clear hair from the blades during use to maintain optimal performance.
5. Maintenance
5.1 Cleaning the Blades
After each use, it is recommended to clean the blades to remove any accumulated hair. Use the provided cleaning brush to brush away hair from the blade area. For a more thorough cleaning, the blade can be carefully removed and rinsed under water, ensuring the clipper body remains dry. Allow the blade to dry completely before reattaching.
5.2 Oiling the Blades
To maintain optimal cutting performance and blade longevity, apply a few drops of clipper oil to the blades after every few uses or after cleaning. Turn the clipper on for a few seconds to allow the oil to distribute evenly across the blades.
5.3 Battery Care
The TPOB X Clipper uses a Lithium Ion battery. To prolong battery life, avoid completely discharging the battery frequently. Charge the clipper when the battery indicator shows low power. Store the clipper in a cool, dry place when not in use for extended periods.
