- Trimming without Comb: The trimmer can be used without the adjustable comb to trim hair close to the skin, achieving a 1mm trim. Holding the blades perpendicular to the skin will result in a 0.4mm trim.
- Thinning and Tapering: To thin and taper the beard/moustache, fit the adjustable comb, set the desired length using the zoom wheel, turn the unit on, place the flat top of the comb against the skin, and slowly slide through the hair.
- Nape of Neck Trimming: For trimming the nape of the neck, remove the adjustable comb. Use fingers to lift hair at the base of the head, hold the trimmer with the cutting unit facing up, and move it up the neck until it touches the finger covering the hair roots.
- Defining Beard/Moustache Line: Hold the trimmer with the blade facing you, start at the edge of the line, and gently lower the blade onto the skin, using motions towards the edge of the line to trim.
- Blade Release: The blades can be easily removed by pushing them upwards from underneath and moving the blade set away from the trimmer body. To reattach, align the back of the blades with the back housing and push down until they click into place.
- Best Results Tips: For optimal results, beard, moustache, and sideburn hairs should be dry. Avoid using lotions before use and comb hair in the direction it grows.
