Fig. 7. | Press the wheel downward and turn it |
| (see the arrow). Then lift the cluster frame holding |
| the shaving heads from the shaving unit. |
Fig. 8. | Slide one shaving head (guard and cutter) out of the |
| frame. Keep your finger under the shaving head to |
| prevent the cutter from falling out of the guard. |
Fig. 9. | Keep the guard and cutter together because |
| each pair has been especially ground to match |
| each other. If the guards and cutters are mixed, it |
| may take a couple of weeks before optimal shaving |
| performance is restored. |
