no you can't. if you want a manual trimmer that works with one hand, try the groom mate silver wing or the groom mate silver wing xl. good luck.

No it will not it has a built in safety feature that requires you to use both hands to operate it. One at the base and the other at the top where you support the weight. Honestly as powerful as this trimmer is it is probably a good idea.

Yes, you can use it without the guard for a closer shave. However, don't recommend this trimmer at all! Have to run over the hair multiple times to get it to cut, and the guard is useless as it practically prevents the hair from getting through to the blades. Regret buying this..

You probably can not use only one hand because its weight is too light for most things you would cut. It would probably move around too much causing a little frustration. With that being said, it is durable and easy to use with two hands because it is solidly built. The blades are very sharp and durable and it is pretty easy to control. I hope this answered your question. :)

Yes you only need one hand. All you do is place it on top of the can and push the button. The opener will do the rest.

Well sure you could but that would defeat the purpose of being able to use it with one hand

Yes...but I personally think it is not very convenient comparing with the trimmer also from Panasonic ( I had that one before). The head can be removed from the body and is washable so all stubbles can be washed off....

Not at all you will need both hands, I only bought it for looks but it is kind of impractical. Hope this helps!

Yes . Can be used either hand Just depends on which way you load the line on.Drag does not matter as it is central and there is no adjustment.

Yes. As it's meant to be a comb, you can use it as one. It's a metal comb so be careful using it against your scalp and NEVER bring it to an airport.

It is set up for right handed use, I do not believe it would be comfortable to use left handed. I suppose you could just keep your thumb next to your other fingers but I don't think the glove would stay on properly. It is set up like a mitten, a place for your thumb and the rest of your fingers go in the other side. The comb side is only on one side of the glove and not both sides.

It seems one cannot by anything related to this item, though I love it for ease of use, once you need new trimmer blades or anything else, you are out of luck! Sorry I bought it!

I think this machine was just designed for light grooming. You should prob. Get something heavy duty in the same brand.

I would no longer recommend this groomer. It quit working before battery ran out. Have replaced with Conair model. It is still working well. It takes 1AA battery.

Per your question, I tried to operate this using only one hand and found it very difficult . I also have one made by Simmons (prosport ) that I can use with only one hand. Hope this is helpful.

I am able to. It may take a little practice but it is meant to be operated with one hand.

Yes, but you can do it with a Dremel. Use a greasy rag to catch the shavings.
