Set the speed of your rotary tool to match the ‘Operating Speeds’
chart. Support the toe and nail in one hand while using the rotary
tool in the other hand. This is more comfortable for your pet as it
lessens vibration on the paw. Pushing gently on the bottom of the
paw’s pad extends the nail slightly for easier grooming.
It is important to let the speed of the rotary tool do the work;
never apply pressure to the toenail with the spinning sanding
disc. Pressure may cause the nail to grow too hot, resulting in
discomfort for your pet. The rotary tool’s spinning sanding disc
should not be kept against the nail longer than three seconds at
a time. Instead of focusing on completing one nail at a time, it is
recommended to briefly trim each nail on one paw, and then the
other, in several passes. This allows time for the nails to cool. You
may repeat this process as needed. Trim nails so that they almost
touch the ground when your pet is walking.
