user manual
The Conair for Men Even Cut Clipper is a revolution in home haircutting. The clipper’s unique circular blades mean that it can be used in any direction over the head to maintain an all-over even cut.
The clipper comes with adapter:

• Adapter: CA15
• Rating input: 100-240V AC 50/60Hz
• Rating output: 3.0V DC 1500mA

Features

• Corded or cordless operational clipper. Use corded for continuous power while plugged into the outlet or use cordless for flexibility and control during the use of Ultra-sharp stainless steel blades for fast, precise cutting.
• Ergonomic design – it fits into the palm of your hand.
• 2 adjustable comb guides for grades 1-4 (comb guide 1 cuts lengths 1/8″, 1/4″ and 3/8″ and comb guide 2 cuts lengths 1/2″).
• Includes barber’s comb, neck brush, scissors, storage pouch, oil, and barber cape.

The hair clipper is perfect for maintaining a short even length all over. It has been designed with a unique rotary cutting system and circular comb guides to give a guaranteed even finish. Because of this revolutionary technology, the cutting technique differs somewhat from that of a normal clipper, in fact, this cutting technique is much simpler! The Even Cut is designed for cutting grades 1-4 to an even length. it is not, however, suitable for layering or grading. A shorter hairstyle length (1″ or less is recommended), is needed for the initial use of this item. There are two comb guides; the smaller comb guide is for grades 1-3 and the larger comb guide is for grade 4. Note the Comb Guides section for a detailed breakdown of lengths. Firstly, select the desired comb guide and lock the length setting in place lining up the grade length number to the grade setting indicator line

For the best results, we advise you to start cutting the back of the head and with a sweeping motion run from the back to the front of your head concentrating on one area until you reach the desired length. Once you have completed this over your whole head you should then finish using circular motions as this ensures you achieve a perfect even finish. Please note that when you first begin cutting your hair you may notice that some hair is being cut and other hairs are left long. This is perfectly normal, especially if you are cutting longer hair. This is because hair grows in different directions and the Easy Cut clipper is designed to be used in all directions against the hair growth. So continue cutting in all directions until all hair is cut to length, then the use of circular motions over the whole head will ensure an even finish

Operation

Charging instructions
imPortAnt – The Even Cut is so easy to use, but before you do anything you must take your time to charge the unit for 16 hours before its first use. Even if you want to use it plugged in straight from the outlet, this initial super-charge ensures optimum power performance to give smooth fast cutting every time. Only use the adaptor supplied with this appliance. Using other adaptors may cause a hazard.

• Before using it for the first time, the appliance should be fully charged continuously for 16 hours. Maximum battery capacity will only be reached after 3 charging and discharging cycles.
• Ensure the appliance is switched off.
• Insert the small plug on the charging adaptor into the socket on the side of the appliance.
• Plug the charging unit into a suitable outlet socket.
• The red charging indicator light on the power handle will illuminate when the appliance is correctly connected to the outlet.
• A full charge will supply enough power for approximately 20 minutes of use.

oiling instructions
Important – It is highly recommended before each use to oil the circular blades with the oil provided. This ensures optimum cutting performance. For the first use, you will need to use the oil supplied with the product, unscrew the cap, and cut off the very end of the plastic tube with a pair of scissors to release the oil. Before each use, we recommend adding a few drops of oil provided in the oil slots inside the blade ring.

Preserving the batteries
In order to maintain the optimum capacity of the rechargeable batteries, the appliance has to be fully discharged and then recharged for 16 hours every 3 months approximately.
comb guides
This appliance is supplied with 2 adjustable comb guides that provide 4 cutting lengths from grades 1-4

The comb guide with the shorter teeth will cut at the 3 shorter lengths while the comb guide with the longer teeth will cut at the 1 longer length setting.

If you desire a grade 0 cut, the clipper can be used without a comb guide for an ultra-close, even cut.

Attaching a comb guide
To attach a comb guide, make sure the appliance is switched off. Hold the clipper with the blades facing downwards and place the comb guide over the top of the clipper with the teeth of the comb facing downwards. Release the comb guide locking mechanism, located on the side of the appliance, by sliding it away from the comb guide. Line up the dot indicator on the comb guide (Fig. 1) with the grade  setting marker on the clipper (Fig. 1) then gently rotate the comb guide in a counter-clockwise direction until it clicks into place (Fig. 2). Make sure that the locking mechanism is in the locked position and the comb guide is securely in place before using the clipper

Changing the comb guide
length setting Comb guide 1 for grades 1-3, will lock into different positions, providing cutting length grade settings. Comb guide 2 for grade 4,   locks into 1 position, and provides 1 cutting length grade setting. The comb guide will be marked with its grade settings (Fig.3). In order to change the grade setting release the comb guide locking mechanism found on the side of the clipper (Fig.4) and rotate the comb guide either clockwise or anti-clockwise as appropriate (Fig.5). Line up the grade setting you want with the ‘I’ mark on the clipper. Make sure that the locking mechanism is in the locked position and the comb guide is securely in place before using the clipper.

Removing a comb guide
To remove the comb guide unclip the guide locking mechanism found on the side of the clipper and rotate the comb guide in a clockwise direction until it is completely free of the clipper.

Preparation for use

• Prior to use always inspect the head for warts, moles, spots, and broken skin. If using the clipper on yourself either use mirrors or ask another person to check for you. Special care should be taken when cutting hair in areas that have warts, moles, spots, or broken skin, to prevent injury.
• Remove any head jewelry such as earrings and necklaces before use.
• For best performance use on clean, dry hair
  that has been combed until tangle-free.
