TO REMOVE THE COMB

•  Press upward on the tab to release the comb.

•  With tab released, pull comb away from clipper and unhook front of the blade.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR CUTTING HAIR 

•  For even cutting, allow the comb attachment/blade to cut its way through the hair. Do 

not force it through quickly. If you are cutting for the first time, start with the maximum 

comb attachment. 

STEP 1 – Base of the neck 

•  Attach the 3mm or 6mm fixed comb

•  Hold the clipper with the blade teeth pointing upwards. Begin starting at the centre of 

the head at the base of the neck.

•  Slowly lift the clipper, working upwards and outwards through the hair, trimming just a 

little at a time.

STEP 2 –Sides AND Back of Head

•  With the 3 or 6mm grade comb attached (if a shorter cut is desired) start moving the 

comb from base of hairline on one side of the head, round the back, to the other side. 

Working the clipper comb flat against the head in an upwards motion until you reach 

half way up the sides and back of the head.

•  Then change to the next grade length comb (if used 3mm in previous step, here you 

would use 6mm) and continue to cut towards the top, on each side and back of head.

STEP 3 – TOP of the head 

•  Use the longer grade combs between 16mm – 25mm as desired to cut hair on top of 

head, against the direction in which your hair normally grows.

•  Alternatively, using scissors, decide the amount of hair length you want to take off the 

top and hold this amount in between your index and middle finger, exposing the length 

you wish to trim above your fingers.

•  Start at the front of your head and in rows snip into and along the hair, being careful not 

to catch your fingers. Snipping into the hair will give it a textured look.

•  Work towards the back of the top of your head moving your fingers as you work through 

the hair. Blending longer lengths into the back and sides already trimmed by the clipper.

STEP 4 – The finishing touches

•  Use the clipper without an attachment comb for close trimming around the base and 

sides of the neck.

•  To produce a clean straight line at the sideburns, reverse the hair clipper. Place the 

reversed clipper at right angles to the head, tips of the blades lightly touching the skin 

and then work downwards.

Short Cuts and Crew Cuts

•  Starting with the longest fixed comb (25mm), cut from the back of the neck to the 

crown. Hold the guide comb flat against the head and slowly move the clipper through 

the hair.
