Thinning Hair; Cutting Hairlines And Beard - Silvercrest SHBS 500 C2 Instrucciones De Servicio

• Place a sheet or cape around throat and
neck to prevent cut-off hair from drop-
ping into the collar.
• Comb the hair well.
• Figure A: first, start with a longer cut-
ting length and then, in the course of the
cutting process, use progressively short-
er cutting lengths. Adjust the cutting
length according to the desired hair
length. Press on the rear of the comb at-
tachment 1 to adjust it, and read the
cutting lengths by using the marking 11
on the side of the comb attachment 1.
• It is only possible to adjust the cutting
length of the comb attachment 1 when
the device is switched off.
• The cutting length setting of the comb
attachment 1 is only locked when the
device is switched on.
NOTE: ensure that the comb attachment 1
is still firmly attached to the device after ad-
justment.
• Start by cutting the hair in the neck or on
the sides and cut towards the centre of
the head. Then, cut the front section of the
hair towards the centre of the head.
• Hold the device in such a way that the
comb attachment 1 lies as flat as possi-
ble on the head. Move the device
through your hair smoothly and in only
one direction so as to avoid catching.
• If possible, cut against direction of hair
growth.
• In order to catch all the hair, move the
device several times through each sec-
tion of the hair.
• Comb the hair repeatedly and well.
• In order to achieve a straight cutting line
for cutting lengths over 20 mm, the de-
vice should be passed through the hair
several times from different directions.
