Operation Manual
1st Time Cutting Hair
The first time you cut hair, cut only
a small amount of hair until you
become accustomed to the length
of hair each guide comb provides.
(See guide comb listing on page
4.)
• Start by attaching the largest
guide comb on the clipper.
• Then use shorter guide combs
if a shorter length is desired.
• For uniform cutting, cut at a
slow, even speed.

Some kits do not include all Wahl guide combs. Some kits include colored guide combs for
ease in remembering which combs were previously used.
NOTE:
1) Always start with the largest guide comb, then use shorter combs if a shorter length
is desired.
2) Cut only a small amount until you become accustomed to how long each guide
comb leaves the hair.
3) Cut slowly and smoothly. Do not force the clipper through the hair.
