Attachments for use on beard
Full-size hair trimmer
Use the full-size hair trimmer without a guard to trim hair close to the skin
(to a length of 1/32in./0.5mm) or to create clean lines around your beard, neck and sideburns.
1To trim hair close to the skin, place the flat side of the cutting element against your skin and make strokes against the direction of hair growth (Fig. 9).
2For contouring, hold the cutting element perpendicular to the skin and move it upwards or downwards with gentle pressure (Fig. 10).
Beard guards
Attach a beard guard to the full-size hair trimmer to trim your beard and moustache evenly. The product comes with 5 beard guards. The hair length settings are indicated on the guards. The settings correspond to the remaining hair length after trimming.

1Attach the guard to the full-size hair trimmer.
2To trim the most effective way, move the guard against the direction of hair growth (Fig. 11). Make sure the surface of the guard always stays in contact with the skin.
Attachments for use on body
-- Use the green body guards to trim body hair.
-- When you trim for the first time, use the 5mm/3/16in. body guard to familiarize yourself with the product.
-- Make sure hair is clean and dry as wet hair tends to stick to the body and, when trimming sensitive areas, always use a body guard.
-- Since all hairs do not grow in the same direction, you may want to try different trimming positions (i.e. upwards, downwards, or across). Practice is best for optimum results.
-- Always make smooth and gentle movements and be sure the surface of the guard always stays in contact with your skin.
-- When too many hairs have accumulated on the product, blow the hairs out before use, for best trimming results.
Body guards
Attach a body guard to the full-size hair trimmer to trim hairs below the neckline. The product comes with 2 body guards. The hair length settings are indicated on the guards. The settings correspond to the remaining hair length after trimming.
