HOW TO USE
Before Starting to Cut
- Inspect the hair clipper making sure it is free from hair and dirt.
- Ensure that the hair is thoroughly dry and tangle free.
- The blades on your hair clipper should be oiled before every haircut.
Lubricating the Hair Clipper Blades
Simply place a few drops of oil on the teeth of the blades. Use only the lightgrade oil supplied or a suitable alternative like sewing machine oil. Only this type of oil is suitable for the blades on your Remington hair clipper. Do not use hair oil, grease or any oil mixed with kerosene or any solvent as the solvent will evaporate and leave a thick oil, slowing the blades.If oil is not applied to the blades or only a small amount of oil is applied, this may cause cutting problems. Blades will wear prematurely and not cut properly if they are not sufficiently lubricated. There may also be a pulling sensation on the hair.
Instructions for Hair Cutting
Note: For even cutting, allow the trimmer comb/blade to cut its way through the hair. Do not force it through quickly. If you are cutting for the first time, start with the maximum length trimmer comb, until you know how short you would like your hair to be.Note: The comb guide lengths described for use in the steps below are an example only, if you want a longer or shorter hair cut you will need to adjust the comb guide lengths to suit your requirements.
To Attach a Comb
- Hold the comb with its teeth upward.
- To attach a comb, align the legs of the comb with the holes in thetop of the clipper on each side of the blade and slide the legs into the trimmer until they click.
- To remove, firmly pull the comb straight up away from the clipper.
Comb Settings
- The hair clipper comes with two adjustable combs, a short length adjustable comb (indicated by 1-21mm on the back of the comb) and a longer length adjustable comb (indicated by 24-44mm on the back of the comb).

Step 1 – Nape of the neck
- Set the comb to 3mm or 6mm.
- Hold the clipper with the blade teeth pointing upwards. Start at the centre of the head at the base of the neck.
- Slowly lift the clipper, working upwards and outwards through the hair, trimming just a little at a time.
Step 2 – Back of the head
- With the comb set at 12mm or 18mm, cut the hair at the back of the head.
Step 3 – Side of the head
- With the comb set at 3mm or 6mm, trim sideburns. Then change to the longer 9mm guide comb and continue to cut the top of the head.
Step 4 – Top of the head
- Use the longer length comb attachment and set it to 24mm or 27mm then cut hair on top of the head against the direction in which the hair normally grows.
- For longer hair on top, use the longer length comb attachment (24 – 44mm) to achieve the desired style.
- Always work from the back of the head.
Step 5 – The finishing touches
- Use the clipper without an attachment comb for close trimming around the base and sides of the neck.
- To produce a clean straight line at the sideburns, reverse the hair clipper.
- Place the reversed clipper at right angles to the head so the tips of the blades lightly touching the skin and then work downwards.
CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
- Your clipper is fitted with high quality blades.
- To ensure long lasting performance of your clipper, clean the blades and unit regularly.
- Always keep the attachment guide comb on the trimmer blade.
After Each Use
- Ensure the appliance is switched off and unplugged from the mains before cleaning.
- Brush the accumulated hair from the blades and body of the clipper.Do not submerge the clipper in water.
- To clean unit, wipe with a damp cloth and dry immediately.
- Place a few drops of cutter or sewing machine oil onto the blades. Wipe off excess oil.
Every Six Months
- Remove the 2 screws retaining the fixed blade with a screwdriver.
- Remove the blade set.
- Brush out hairs from between the blades with a soft cleaning brush.Do not remove the lubricating grease from the blades. It is not necessary to remove the small moving blade from the unit.
- If the moving blade has been removed this can be re-fitted by slotting the moving blade holder over the pin in the centre of the interior product head.
- The groove on the moving blade just below the teeth should rest on the plastic pressure arm which rides inside the groove. The fixed blade should be assembled with the bevelled edge of the 2 screw holes facing outward and fixed with screws.
- Note that if the blades are not correctly aligned then cutting efficiency will be impaired.
Storage
When not in use, unplug the hair clipper and store it out of reach of children in a safe dry place. Never wrap the cord around the hair clipper as this will cause the cord to wear prematurely and break. Handle the cord carefully for long life and avoid jerking, twisting or straining especially at the plug connections.
