What exactly is this adjustable comb?
The short adjustable comb is the part that determines the cutting length of the beard trimmer. It attaches to the wide 32mm cutting head, and by turning the adjustment wheel it raises or lowers itself against the blades. This results in a uniform beard length across the entire face, from 0.4mm sideburns to a full 10mm beard.
This is the “short” comb of the series. Alongside it is a separate “long” comb in the 10-20mm range for those who grow a longer beard. Together, the two complete the 40 length settings of the 5000 Series trimmers.
The comb itself is a snap-on accessory – it doesn’t require disassembly or replacing any internal components. You slide it onto the cutting head until it clicks, and that’s it.

📏 How do you use the adjustable comb correctly?
Sliding the comb onto the 32mm cutting head is simple – line it up against your head and press until you hear a locking click. Then select the desired length using the adjustment wheel.
For stubble and line shaping: 0.4-1 mm setting. Suitable for maintaining a three-day “stable” look and sharpening edges.
For short to medium beards: 2-6 mm setting. The adjustment wheel locks at each setting, so the length remains the same throughout the entire cut.
For a full beard: up to 10 mm with the short comb. To go to longer lengths, switch to the long comb 10-20 mm.
For maintenance and precision: Rinse the comb under running water after each use and dry it before the next attachment. Dry hair residue between the teeth is the number one cause of the comb “jumping” between settings and losing uniformity.
💡 Tip from the experts
💡 Tip from Daniel, our grooming expert: Most customers who think their comb is “broken” simply have a stuck adjustment wheel with hair and skin oil. Before replacing – try cleaning the wheel groove with a dry brush. If the adjustment still pops or the plastic is cracked, it’s time to replace. A bent or cracked comb creates an uneven length that looks like an unprofessional cut, even if the blades are perfectly fine.
❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Is this comb adjustable or fixed?

Which cutting head is the comb suitable for?
The comb attaches to the wide 32mm (17 teeth) cutting head of the Philips Beard Trimmer Series 5000. It does not fit narrower cutting heads or separate detail heads.
What is the difference between the short comb and the long comb?
The short comb covers 0.4-10 mm and is suitable for stubble, stubble and short to medium beards. The long comb covers 10-20 mm and is designed for long beards. The two are separate and together complement the entire length range of the series.
