Attaching The Clipper Combs

(Some models do not have attachment combs)

The clipper comb blade attachments mount easily. Just snap them on. Snap them off. Combs help guide hair to cutting blades and give you precise control of hair lengths. Each comb allows a different length of cut which is indicated on the combs: 1/16", 1/8", 1/4", and 3/8".

You can always set blades for a coarser cut by attaching any of the four snap-on blade attachments.

To use a blade attachment, slip the cutter blade teeth into blade attachment.

Snap blade attachment down, they snap on and off easily. These attachments guide hair into the clipper blades and give you precise control of hair lengths.

The length of trim is indicated on the blade attachment: 1/16", 1/8", 1/4", and 3/8".

Use the following chart to find the approximate lengths of cut. Different blade angles in relation to the skin, thickness and texture of the hair will vary the cutting length.

The Preliminaries

1.To make cutting smoother and easier, always start with a clean head of hair. Wash the hair with your favorite shampoo. Rinse. Repeat. We also recommend using a hair conditioner to untangle snarls and leave hair soft and easy to manage.

2.When drying the hair, just use a towel so as not to dry it too thoroughly. Leaving it damp makes the hair easier to work with.

FACTORY REPAIR SERVICE

If you wish your clipper/trimmer to be serviced as well, it should be carefully packed and mailed either Parcel Post Insured, or U.P.S. to any of the Service Centers listed in manual.
