TRIMMING AND EDGING YOUR BEARD
The following are suggested trimming steps and trimmer positions. You may find different procedures work better for you.
1. Comb your beard in the direction that it grows to help reveal stray hairs that may be longer than the others.
2. Attach the multi-position trimming guide to trim and taper

your beard. Begin with the guide set at a long trimming length. Trim toward your chin in smooth, overlapping strokes, following the lay of your beard to avoid patchy results. If you trim against the way your beard naturally lays, the trimmer will cut the hair much

shorter. Adjust the trimming guide to progressively shorter settings until you reach the desired length of beard. You may wish to set the trimming guide attachment to cut closer near the ear and down under the chin, changing to a longer setting toward the front of the face and point of your chin. When the trimming guide is removed, it will remain at its last length setting until you change it. Always be sure the trimming guide is

locked solidly into the desired position before you start to trim.
3. To cut the outline of your beard, remove the trimming guide. Starting under your chin and working back toward your jawbone and ears, cut the outer perimeter of your beard underneath the jawbone. Continue the line all the way up to the ears and hairline.
4. Accentuate your beard line by using the trimmer in a downward motion. Start at the line you’ve created and, working from the chin back toward the ears, trim the area right under your beard line.
5. Define the upper part of your beard using the same technique.
6. For a neater finished look, replace attachment blade with the detail blade. Use this blade for fine, detail trimming anywhere it is needed, such as at the sideburns near the ears, goatees, etc.
TRIMMING YOUR MUSTACHE
1. Comb your mustache.
2. To define the line of your mustache, begin with the trimmer blade.
3. Now attach the 6-position trimming guide. Adjust it to a fairly long trimming length and begin trimming your mustache, starting at the top and working down to your upper lip, using slow, methodical strokes. Use progres­sively closer settings to get the look and length you desire.
4. For tapering the mustache, hold the trimmer with the blades pointing upward. Set the trimming guide at a medium length. Starting in the middle of your mustache, taper with short upward strokes, working out toward the corners until a gentle shape is created on the bottom of your mustache.
5. As a finishing step, remove the trimming guide, replace the head so the detail blade, and make a definitive line at the bottom of your mustache.
BODY SCAPING
Your trimmer makes for the perfect tool to groom areas below the neck. Using the same technique, as mentioned prior, you can groom wherever you feel a need.
TRIMMING WITH ATTACHMENT COMBS
Your trimmer includes three trimming attachments; stubble, medium and long. The stubble guide has 1 bar, the medium-cut attachment has two bars and the long-cut attach­ment has three bars. These attachments are ideal for blend­ing, tapering and defining beards, as well as for achieving a “close trim” stubble look around the face. To use the attach­ments, go with the hair direction. To achieve closer looks, go against the hair direction.
