manual abstract
Loosen screws slightly and adjust. Tighten screws after blade is aligned. OIL To maintain your clipper in peak condition, the blades should be oiled every few haircuts. » Do not use hair oil, grease, oil mixed with kerosene or any solvent. As the solvent will evaporate and leave the thick oil which may slow down the blades motion. BLADE LEVEL • The level is conveniently located near your thumb (if you are right-handed) so it can easily be adjusted while the clipper is in your hand. • The level adds versatility to your clipper by allowing you gradually change the closeness of your cut without an attachment comb. • When the level is in the uppermost position, the blades will give you the closest cut and leave the hair very short. Pushing the level downward gradually increases the cutting length. • In its lowest position, the level will leave the hair approximately the same length as a №1 comb. • The level will also extend the use of your blades since a different cutting edge is used in each setting. • In addition, if extremely heavy hair cutting has jammed the blades, it will help you remove hair that has become wedged between the two blades without removing the blades. • While the clipper is running rapidly move the level from "close cut" to "longer cut" a couple of times. Doing this each time after you have finished using your clipper will help to keep the blades clear of cut hair. • If your clipper stops cutting and this does not help, your cutting blades are dulled. Replace them with new blades. _INSTRUCTIONS FOR HAIR CUTTING_ • Before starting the hair cut inspect the clipper, making sure that it is free of oil between the cutting blade teeth and switch the unit on to distribute the oil and to make sure it is running smoothly. Wipe off any excess oil. This should be done after each use. While using the unit, untwist the cord from time to time to avoid tangling. • Seat the person so their head is approximately at your eye level. This allows ease of visibility while cutting and a relaxed control of the unit. • Before cutting always first comb the hair so it is tangle free and as it is naturally worn. • Place a towel around the neck and shoulders of the person having the haircut. THINNING FUNCTION • First, slide the Thinning plate up. While applying the blade point at right angles to the hair, run the trimmer slowly across the head as if combing the hair. • After thinning, slide the thinning plate back. For thinning, confirm that the thinning plate is set to the right position. Incorrect setting may result in excessive cutting. If a difference in level is produced, lightly thin to compensate. If thick and thin portions are produced, or if there are portions with an excessive amount of hair, thin the appropri-ate portions to compensate. Point: Thin the hair gradually while checking the overall balance. REMINDERS • Cut the hair in a relaxed and slow manner. Use short strokes only to work gradually over the entire head. • Always take off a little at a time, you can always trim off additional hair later. • When cutting with this hair clipper it is better to leave the hair dry, not wet. With the hair dry, it is much easier to control the length of hair being cut. • Cutting hair requires practice so it is always better to leave the hair longer for the first few haircuts until you become used to the length to which each comb attachment cuts the hair. ATTACHMENT COMB • Attachment comb № 1 leaves 3 mm (1/8 inch) hair length. • Attachment comb № 2 leaves 6 mm (1/4 inch) hair length. • Attachment comb № 3 leaves 9 mm (3/8 inch) hair length. • Attachment comb № 4 leaves 12 mm (1/2 inch) hair length. • Each comb attachment is marked accordingly on its outside middle surface. • To attach a comb, hold it with its teeth upward and slide it onto and along the clipper blade until the front of the comb firmly seats against the clipper blade. • When you use the clipper for the first time, cut only small portions of hair until you are accustomed to the cutting length with a certain comb attachment. • For even cutting, allow the comb attachment/cutter to cut its way through the hair. Do not force it through quickly. Also remember to comb the hair frequently to remove trimmed hair and check for uneven strands. STEP 1 - NAPE OF THE NECK • Attach comb attachment 3mm or 6mm. • Hold the clipper cutting edge pointed up and begin the haircut, starting at the centre of the head at the base of the neck (fig.1). • Hold the clipper comfortably in your hand and hold lightly against the head with the comb teeth pointing upward Gradually and slowly lift the clipper, working upwards and outwards, through the hair, trimming just a little at a time. • As you cut, gradually lift the hair clipper head towards you. Continue to cut the back area from the bottom of the neck upwards to the top of the ears. STEP 2 - BACK OF THE HEAD » Change to the next longest comb attachment 9mm or 12mm and cut the back of...
