ness of the cut; from a close cut
with the taper lever in the up
position - to a longer length cut
with the taper lever in the down
position.
• There are 5 different taper posi-
tions to choose from. To increase
cutting length, slowly push lever
down. To cut closer push the lever
up (figure. 1).
• Because a different cutting edge
is used in each setting, using the
taper lever lengthens the life
of your blades. Packed-in hair
can slow down any clipper. To
remove hair without removing
blades, keep the clipper on, and
quickly push the taper lever back
and forth from close to longer cut
several times. If you do this every
time, especially after heavy hair
cutting, the blades should remain
free of hair.
• This quality hair cutting instru-
ment has been manufactured
with extreme care. It has been
thoroughly tested and inspected
before reaching the professional
user. As with all precision instru-
ments, there may be a period of
"breaking in".
• If the speed of the motor varies,
(as indicated in a change in sound
or pitch), it may be an indication of
a fluctuation in line voltage. Refer
to the 'Power & Vibration Screw'
section in this booklet for more
information on how to maintain
optimum performance.
• When the clipper is lubricated and
adjusted in accordance with the
instructions, it will deliver ample
power and speed for professional
hair cutting requirements.
IMPORTANT Blades must be
cleaned and oiled on a regular ba-
sis for proper functioning. Failure
to regularly clean and oil the blades
will void the warranty.
MAINTENANCE OF THE BLADE
Always apply oil to the blades be-
fore use. This will ensure maximum
cutting performance. With the clip-
per switched on, away from your
body in a downward position, ap-
ply oil onto the top of the blade.
Turn clipper off and wipe off excess
oil with a soft dry cloth.
REPLACEMENT AND REMOVAL
OF FX685E BLADE SET
To remove the blade: turn the clip-
per to the off position and unplug
from mains supply.
To replace the blade after removal
for cleaning, replacement, or be-
cause they are out of alignment:
• Place the moving blade onto the
plastic oscillating head.
• Next, you must make sure that the
two blades are properly aligned.
• Line up the non-moving blade
with the two screw holes.
• Replace the original screws, and
lightly tighten. Then align the two
blades up, point to point, as per
figure 4 below.

• The top blade teeth (larger blade)
should be 1mm above the bottom
blade (smaller cutting blade). This
is important so that the clipper
does not cut too close, or come
in contact with the skin as this
may cause injury.
• The extreme left-hand tooth of
the top non-moving blade must
cover or be to the left of the first
small tooth on the moving sup-
ply blade.
• Be sure to add a few drops of the
oil included with the clipper to
the blades before running.
IMPORTANT: You must tighten the
screws after the blades have been
aligned.
POWER & VIBRATION SCREW
The power & vibration screw per-
mits you to adjust the power of
your clipper. You may find it neces-
sary to adjust it to the power sup-
ply in your salon regularly to main-
tain an optimum performance.
