4. To get a smooth edge, grind from the bottom of the nail up towards the tip.
5. Use a continuous side-to-side motion when grinding each nail; holding the tip in one
place too long can cause unevenness and over-grinding. Do not keep the grinding
wheel or stone against the nail for longer than three seconds at a time.
6. IMPORTANT: Do not apply excessive force when grinding. Let the speed of the grinder
do the work. Do not apply pressure to the nail with the spinning grinding wheel. Pressure
causes the nail to get hot and will cause pain to the dog.
7. Keep the nail grinder away from the nail when first starting, or the grinder may "grab" the
nail and cause loss of control or injury to the dog.
