To Trim Moustache with

ing you.
Trim hairs using a down-
ward motion following the
direction of your hair
growth or you may trim
against your hair growth—
whichever is preferred.
NOTE: Since all hairs do
not grow in the same
direction, you may want
to try different trimming
positions (i.e. upwards,
downwards or across).
Practice is best for opti-
mum results.

Trimmer Guard Attachment
1. Remove Trimmer Guard
Attachment.
