• 3

  Use an old toothbrush to first clean away all the hair.

• 4

  Apply a drop of machine oil along the foil cover of the blade. If this does not help improve the cut of the shaver, proceed to the next step.

• 5

  Hold the shaver and grasp the foil assembly positioned over the cutters at the middle and then pull forward and up on the foil assembly. This will remove the foil and expose the cutters.

  Turn the trimmer back on and allow the cutters to rotate. As they do, hold either a sharpening file or the flat end of a ceramic coffee cup against the blades
