Notes for thinning
•
Confirm that the thinning plate is set to the 1/3 (right) position.
Incorrect setting may result in excessive cutting.
•
If a difference in level is produced, lightly thin to compensate.
•
If thick and thin portions are produced, or if there are portions
with an excessive amount of hair, thin the appropriate portions
to compensate.
Cleaning the trimmer
1. Remove the comb attachment.
2. Brush off any hair trimmings from the
main body and from around the blade.
3. Hold the main body, place your thumb
against the blades and then push
them away from the main body.
4. Brush any hair trimmings out
from between the stationary blade
and the moving blade while
pressing down the cleaning lever
to raise the moving blade.
Lubrication
Lubricate the blades before using
them or after cleaning them.
1. Apply a drop of the oil to the
points indicated by the arrows.
Remounting the blade

and then push in until it clicks.

Blade life
Blade life varies according to the frequency and length of use of
the trimmer.
For example, the blade life is approximately 3 years when using
the trimmer for 10 minutes every 3 days. Replace the blades if
cutting efficiency reduces substantially despite proper
maintenance.
►
Battery life
Battery life varies according to the frequency and length of use of
the appliance.
For example, the battery life is approximately 6 years when the
battery is charged 3 times a month.
The appliance should not be left for more than 6 months without
charging it. The charge drains from the battery and the battery life
may be shortened.
