The Nail Grooming Process
It is important to let the speed of the rotary tool
do the work. You should never apply pressure to
the toenail with the spinning sanding drum. Allow
the speed of the sanding drum to remove the nail
material without adding pressure. Pressure caus-
es the nail to get too hot causing discomfort for
your pet.
The rotary tool's spinning sanding drum should
not be kept against the nail longer than three sec-
onds at a time. It is recommended that you alter-
nate between all the nails on two paws at a time.
This rotation method allows the nails to cool
before they are ground a second time.
Support the toe and nail in one hand while using
the rotary tool in the other hand. This lessens the
vibration of the grinding procedure and is more
comfortable for your pet. Pushing gently on the
bottom of the paw's pad extends the nail slightly
for easier grooming.
Using the Cordless Rotary Tool
The first step in learning to use the Cordless Rotary
Tool is to get the "feel" of it. Hold it in your hand and
feel its weight and balance. Feel the taper of the
housing. This taper permits the tool to be grasped
much like a pen or pencil.
When you turn on the tool for the first time, hold it
away from your face. Accessories can be damaged
during handling, and can fly apart as they come up
to speed. This is not common, but it does happen.
Practice on scrap materials first to see how the
Cordless Rotary Tool works. Keep in mind that the
work is done by the speed of the tool and by the
accessory in the collet. You should not lean on or
push the tool into the work.

Pet Safety
Secure the pet. Some pets may become nervous in
the presence of the tool. The operator needs both
hands to groom the nail. It may be helpful to have
another person assist in restraining the pet.
Keep pet hair away from spinning parts. Hair can
entangle in the tool, causing injury to your pet.
Safety Tips
Should hair be accidentally caught in the rotary
tool, immediately turn off the tool and untangle the
hair from the tool.
For pets with particularly long hair, use an old sock
to cover the toe, foot and leg of the pet and isolate
the nail. Push the nail out through a small opening
at the tip of the sock to groom the nail.
Keep styptic powder on hand in case of bleeding.
Styptic powder is available at most pet supply
stores. Follow the directions on the packaging for
proper use instructions.
Instead, lower the spinning accessory lightly to the
work and allow it to touch the point at which you
want to begin. Concentrate on guiding the tool over
the work using very little pressure from your hand.
Allow the accessory to do the work.
Usually, it is best to make a series of passes with the
tool rather than attempt to do all the work in one
pass. Pass the tool back and forth over the work,
much as you would a small paint brush. For most
work, the deft, gentle touch is best. With it, you have
the best control, are less likely to make errors, and
will get the most efficient work out of the accessory.
