Binatone HC-430: USEFUL TIPS

USEFUL TIPS: Binatone HC-430

5. If necessary, connect the hair-cutting device to the power

adapter (5) after cleaning but only when completely dry.

Lubrication

1. To keep the hair-cutting device in sound operating conditions,

it’s necessary to lubricate the hair-cutting head blades with

the supplied oil (14) once a month.

2. Before starting lubrication, disconnect the device from the

adapter (5), remove remaining hair with the brush (15) or

water.

3. Turn the device so that the blades of the hair-cutting head (2)

are pointing downwards. Squeeze a drop of oil onto the blades.

4. Turn on the device and let it run for several seconds to allow oil

to evenly spread throughout the blade surface.

5. Use a soft cloth to remove excessive oil.

Attention: do not put too much oil onto the device since

excessive oil can damage the motor. Never try to

lubricate the motor: the required grease was already

applied at the factory.

6. After the lubrication procedure is complete, connect the device

to the adapter (5).

USEFUL TIPS

Short hair-cut (Fig. 3)

X Thoroughly comb hair before starting hair-cut-

ting.

X Start hair-cutting from the back of the head.

Firstly shorten the hair length. Cut hair from bottom

upwards, against the hair growth direction; use short runs and

slightly raise the cutting head (see Fig. 3b). When the hair at

the back is evenly cut, put on the attachment (7A) into shorter

hair cut position. Cut the hair on the back of the head again.

Comb hair from time to time to see the hair-cut results.

X Use a similar procedure to cut the rest of the hair. Use the same

method for cutting the top of the head, however, cut hair from

the forehead towards the back, against the hair growth direc-

tion (Fig. 3с). Then, even it up with the sides.

X For cutting whiskers and trimming the hair-cut contour at the

back of the head, remove the attachments (7) from the de-

vice. Cut the hair at the hair-cut edges, holding the device

upturned and perpendicular to the head, moving downwards.

Cut in short touches (Fig. 3d).

X For cutting hair around the ears, also use the device without

the attachment. Thoroughly comb hair around the ears. Place

the upturned device between the whisker and the ear and

make sure the blade is under an angle near the beginning of

hair. Use only the end of the device, slowly countering as

desired (Fig 3e and 3f). Hold the device in perpendicular

position to the skin to avid the risk of skin cuts.

Mid-sized hair-cut (Fig. 4)

For this hair-cut, install the attachment (7 A or B) to the posi-

tion from 1 to 7 dependent on the area being cut (Fig. 4a). This

hair-cut gives a flat surface to the back of the head.

X The most important prerequisite for each hair-cut is to properly

dry hair before cutting. Dry the hair against the hair growth

direction to bristle the hair (Fig. 4b).

X Start hair cutting from the back and sides (Fig. 4а) (ref. to the

Short hair-cut section).

ENGLISH

X To enable you to obtain a smooth finish, use the barber hair-

brush (12) or fingers (Fig. 4с). Remove the hair-cutting at-

tachments (7 ) from the device. Using the barber hairbrush

(12) or fingers, lift a small hair strand (hair should be in a

vertical position as compared to the head), move the hairbrush

(12) or fingers along the strand length until you get the de-

sired length. The height of the cut strand is the example for the

next one. Continue cutting strand-by-strand, moving from the

back towards the forehead. Regularly comb hair to remove

cut strands and check the hair-cut results.

X For obtaining a smooth transition area (marked with a bold line

in Fig. 4а), located between the head back hair and the side

hair, slightly decline a flat hairbrush and cut-off the standing

hair (Fig. 4d).

X Cut hair-cut contours and whiskers as shown in the

Short hair-cut section.

Long hair-cut

This kind of hair-cut with hair cut off at the sides and at the back

gives long front hair.

X Cut the back and side hair following the procedure described

in the Short hair-cut section. Cut the hair only until the bold

line in Fig. 4а.

X Starting with this level (located several centimeters above the

ear), use a flat hairbrush to obtain a smooth transition zone.

Decline the hairbrush against the head and cut off the stand-

ing hair using the hair-cutting device without any attachment

(7). In this case the hairbrush serves as a guide (Fig. 4d).

X Do not cut hair from the top.

X Cut hair-cut contours and whiskers as shown in the Short

hair-cut section.

X Comb the hair as desired.

How to maintain the hair-cut

To maintain the hair-cut, from time to time trim the hair-cut

contours on the head back, whiskers and hair around the ears as

described in the Short hair-cut section. For this, no attachments

(7) is used.

Beard cutting

X Start cutting the beard under the chin. Move the device sym-

metrically either to one side, or to the other (Fig.5).

X Hair out of the beard contour should be cut with an upturned

device, with no tip attached. Cut hair in short careful moves.
