- To remove, gently pull the comb away from the blade.
3. Adjusting the Taper Lever (Clipper Only)
The clipper features an adjustable taper lever on the side, allowing for fine-tuning of cutting length without changing guide combs. This lever adjusts the blade from approximately 0.5mm to 2.5mm.
- Push the lever up for the shortest cut (0.5mm).

3. Hair Cutting and Trimming

- Attach the appropriate guide comb for the desired length.

- Move the appliance slowly against the direction of hair growth.
- For blending and fading, utilize the taper lever on the clipper to gradually adjust the cutting length.

Maintenance
1. Cleaning the Blades
- After each use, switch off the appliance and detach any guide combs.
- Use the provided cleaning brush to remove loose hairs from the blades and the inside of the cutting head.
- For a more thorough clean, the blades can be carefully removed (refer to specific blade removal instructions if provided in a separate guide or on the product packaging).
2. Lubricating the Blades
- After cleaning, apply a few drops of the provided lubricating oil to the blades.
- Turn on the appliance for a few seconds to allow the oil to distribute evenly across the blades.
- Wipe off any excess oil with a soft cloth. Regular oiling ensures optimal cutting performance and extends blade life.
