HOW TO USE

Before Starting to Cut

1. Inspect the hair clipper making sure it is free from hair and dirt.

2. Ensure that the hair is thoroughly dry and tangle free.

3. 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 light
grade 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 the

top 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.

6

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).

Shorter Length Adjustable Comb Longer Length Adjustable Comb

1mm 24mm

3mm 26mm

6mm 29mm

9mm 32mm

12mm 35mm

15mm 38mm

18mm 41mm

21mm 44mm

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

clippe r.

• 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.

BATTERY DISPOSAL

Note: The battery is not intended to be removed or replaced under normal
use. The only time the battery should be removed or the unit opened or dis­assembled, is at the end of the product’s useful life before it is discarded.

• The HC7110AU contains a nickel metal hydride battery. Once the hair

clipper has reached the end of its life, to ensure proper disposal of the
product, please take the appliance to a recycling centre, where the
internal rechargeable battery should be removed by a professional and
recycled separately.

• For more information about recycling of electrical and battery operated

appli ances, please contact your local council office or your household
waste disposal service.

Caution: Do not put in the fire or mutilate your batteries when disposing as
they may burst and release toxic materials. Do not short circuit as it may
cause burns.
