BLADE LEVER
• The lever is conveniently located above the on/
off switch so it can easily be adjusted while the
clipper is in your hand.
• The lever adds versatility to the clipper by
allowing a gradual change to the length of a
cut without an attachment comb.
• When the lever is in the uppermost position, the
blades will give the closest cut leaving the hair
very short. Pushing the lever gradually downward
increases the cutting length.
• In its lowest position, the lever will leave the hair
approximately the same length as a #1 comb.
• The lever will also extend the blade’s life
as a longer cut requires less work from the blades.
• While the clipper is running, move the Lever
from “close cut” to “longer cut” a number of
times. This will help keep cut hair away from the
blades. If the clipper stops cutting, and the method
above does not help, then the blades are blunt
and need to be replaced.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR HAIR CUTTING
Before using clippers to cut hair:
1. Inspect the clipper, making sure that it is free
of oil between the cutting blade teeth. Switch
on the unit to distribute the oil and to ensure
that it is running smoothly. Wipe off any excess
oil. This should be done after each use. Unwind
and straighten the cord during use in order to
avoid tangling.
2. Ensure that the person that is going to have
their hair cut is properly seated and that the
hair to be cut is at eye level. This allows easy
visibility while cutting and complete control of
the clipper.
3. Before cutting hair, brush/comb the hair so that
it is straight & tangle free.
4. Place a towel around the neck and shoulders of
the person having the haircut.
REMINDERS
• Cut the hair in a relaxed and slow manner.
Use short strokes and work gradually over the
entire head.
