around the trimmer assembly. Using the supplied brush will enable you to get into the area between the trimmer and the shaver.
Lubricating
1.Every six months apply a drop of light machine oil
2.Using your fingertip, spread the oil along the teeth.
3.Run the trimmer for a few seconds to distribute oil.
Replacing Cutters and
Screens
To prevent inadvertent damage to the cut- ters and screens, do not attempt to remove them from the head assembly unless you are replacing them. Removal instructions are included with the cutter and screen replacement packages.
To replace a cutter assembly that is removed unintentionally:
1. Hold the assembly in the middle of the "T".
2. Gently slide the plastic
portion of the cutter assembly over the top of the oscillator tip.
3.Do not push downward on the ends of the cutters, as you may bend the cutter, reducing its ability to operate smoothly.
4.Do not remove cutters from the plastic pieces they are attached to, as you may damage the assembly.
When is it time to replace your screens and cutters?
Because they are subject to daily use, the cutters and screens of your shaver will wear and eventually require replacement to maintain a close, comfortable shave. It is very important to replace your screens and cutters when necessary to ensure a close, comfortable shave without irritation.
Depending on your shaving technique and habits, the screens will usually last 6 months; the cutters, 12 months. If you are replacing the cutters, it’s a good idea to replace the screens at the same time.
Here are some signs that your foils and cutters need replacing:
Irritation: As screens get worn, you may notice that your skin feels more sensitive after a shave, particularly when you apply aftershave.
Pulling: As cutters wear, your shave may not feel as close and you may feel your shaver is pulling at your whiskers.
