Step 4 – MAKE SURE THE MOVING CUTTING BLADE
DOES NOT EXTEND PAST THE FIXED BLADE. WARNING:
IF THE CUTTING BLADE EXTENDS PAST THE FIXED
BLADE YOU CAN POTENTIALLY CUT YOURSELF.
Step 5 – Once the blade is adjusted to zero gap or your
liking, gently tighten the two screws on each side of
the blade while holding the zero gap tool in place. If the
blade is not adjusted to satisfaction after testing, repeat
the adjusting process.
Step 3 – Using your fingers on each side of the zero-gap
tool, push up until the black cutting blade is even with or
slightly below the gold fixed blade.
Be sure that the blades are aligned properly. The teeth of
the smaller blade (cutter) should rest slightly below the
upper edge of the larger blade (comb) — approximately
1/64" to 1/32" apart (see Fig. 3). If the blades are not
correctly aligned, they may cut or scratch your skin
when trimming. Once the blades have been aligned,
tighten the screws firmly.
