OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS:
-Using your thumb, apply light to moderate pressure to the animal's pads in order to separate their toes. Hold paw firmly.
-Turn grinder "ON". The "ON/OFF" switch is located on the front of the grinder along with the speed adjustment knob. When you
turn the grinder to the "ON" position, the speed control knob should be on low speed, you can then turn the speed knob to the
desired low or high speed desired for the nail trim.
-For best results, start grinding from the bottom of the nail, slowly moving toward the tip. Apply consistent pressure, moving the grinder from side to side
of each nail.
-CAUTION: Do not over-grind or apply excessive pressure. (See FIG.1 'Nail Anatomy' for further information to safely grind your pets nails.)
-To avoid tangling of hair on long-haired breed dogs, push hair away from pet's paw before applying the grinder. (Tip: Use a small nylon stocking or sock
over the pet's paw and push the nails through a hole at the end to ensure only the nails are exposed.)
-For larger dogs, position the front paw forward in order to grind nails.
-For smaller dogs, hold their paw up and position it below their body. Pay extra caution not to entangle hair.

How To Trim
Keep your pet's nails trimmed properly for greater comfort and well being
-Make sure the dog is relaxed and comfortable.
-Have the dog sit and talk to him/her softly to keep them calm.
-Always include a favorite treat during the session and at the end.
-Have a styptic powder or cornstarch readily available in plentiful amount.
-Grasp the foot from the ankle up in the palm of your hand, firmly but gently.
-Position the grinder under the nail.
-Trim off a little of each nail. Be sure to avoid trimming into the 'quick'.
-If bleeding occurs, use styptic powder or cornstarch to stop the bleeding.
NAIL ANATOMY:
-Before you begin trimming your pet's nails, you will need to identify the 'quick' of the nail. The diagram (FIG.1) will help you identify the
basic nail anatomy. The outer nail is hard and has no nerve endings and protects the inner soft part of the nail, known as the 'quick'.
The quick has nerve endings, tiny blood vessels and is very sensitive should you accidently cut or grind into it.
With lighter colored nails, the quick can usually be seen which will make it easier to avoid while grinding. Dark colored nails
Quick
may not allow you to see where the quick is. While grinding, keep checking the nail and watch for a dark spot in the middle
of the grinding area. This spot will indicate the start of the quick and that you should not grind any further.
Please also reference the diagram for the appropriate angle for trimming the nail.

What To Do If Accidentally Hit The Quick:
If by chance you happen to hit the quick of a nail and the nail starts to bleed, don't allow your dog to wrench away from
you and run around. Hold him firm and reassure him that you know it hurts, your pet trusts you. You also need to get styptic or corn starch onto the end
of the nail. Simply keep the original grasp you had on the paw and press the powder to the end of the nail until the bleeding stops. You may have to keep
packing powder for two to three minutes, but the longer you are able to apply steady pressure, the more effectively you will stop the bleeding. Don't be
concerned if your dog wants to lick the wound after initial bleeding stops. Do keep him from prancing about for at least fifteen minutes. Bleeding should
stop within 15 minutes, if the nail is bleeding freely after 30 minutes of applying pressure and powder call your veterinarian.
