Perfect short military cut
1. Always cut from the scruff to the head top using the longest setting. Hold the trimmer
flatwise along the head and move it slowly through the hair upwards. Apply the same
procedure on the head sides; even here move the trimmer bottom-up.
2. On the front part of the head top, cut the hair against the growth direction. Then align the
cut against the cut on the temples.
3. If you want to reach even cut on the top, cut the hair using a straight comb, not the
trimmer adapter. Use the comb for cutting hair on the top of the head.
4. To shorten the cut towards the neck, gradually use shorter adapters. Comb through the
hair and look for unevenness in the cut. Align the cut by the neck and at the ears.
If you want to reach graduated short cut along the sides of the head and on the neck,
follow the instructions on fig. 2.The mentioned main areas on the figure are your map for
becoming an amateur barber easily.
Trimming beard
1. Before trimming beard, wet it a bit and comb it.
2. Mark the beard line using the trimmer and cut out the beard exceeding the line on the
outside.
3. If you want to reach even beard cut, use one of the B adapters or trim the ends carefully
in parts using a comb by moving the comb through the beard upwards (fig. 3). Repeat
the process on the whole beard.
4. After the end of trimming, shave the area around the beard in a usual way.
Trimming moustache
1. Before trimming moustache, wet it a bit and comb it.
2. For reaching even cut of the moustache, cut the ends carefully through a comb.
If you prefer using a finger as the guide, follow the procedure on figure 4.

IV. MAINTENANCE
Turn off the appliance before each maintenance, or unplug the adapter from the
electric socket! Do not use rough and aggressive detergents! Wipe the trimmer
surface with a wet soft cloth.
Cleaning blades
Clean the blades with an enclosed brush. If the blades are very soiled, you can remove the
whole trimming head from the trimmer (figure 5) and clean it in running water. Also clean
the area below the removed trimming head. After drying, put the head with the blades back
to the trimmer in the opposite way (you will hear a clicking sound).
In order to keep the trimmer in a perfect condition, you have to lubricate the list with blades
using one or two drops of oil for sewing machines (figure 5). Do not use hair oil, petroleum
jelly or oil mixed with petrol or any other solvent because after evaporation the solid parts
of the lubricant could slow down operation of the blades. Insert the trimming head to the
trimmer properly, turn on the trimmer and then turn it off and wipe out the excessive oil
from the blades.
