• Smooth Action: The calibrated spring provides a consistent, effortless "bounce-back" with every clip.

3. Professional Usage Guide

1. Preparation: Soak the client’s hands in warm water or apply a cuticle softener to the nail plate.

2. Pushing: Use a cuticle pusher to gently move the dead skin back and expose the non-living tissue.

3. Positioning: Hold the nippers at a slight angle. Place the jaw against the dead skin. Never cut live tissue; only trim the white, translucent dead skin.

4. Trimming: Use short, controlled clips. Start from one side of the nail and follow the natural curve of the cuticle to the other side.

5. Clean Finish: Wipe away debris frequently with a lint-free wipe to maintain a clear view of the work area.

4. Maintenance & Sterilization

• Sanitation: The stainless steel head is safe for professional sterilization:

  • UV/Ozone: Highly recommended. Place in a UV cabinet (like the RTD-208A) for 30 minutes.

  • Chemical: Submerge the metal tips in a disinfectant solution for the specified time. Avoid soaking the silicone handles in harsh chemicals for long periods to prevent fading.

• Lubrication: Periodically apply a drop of machine oil to the hinge joint to keep the movement smooth.

• Sharpening: If the nippers begin to "pull" rather than "cut," they require professional sharpening.

5. Safety Precautions

• Tip Protection: Always use the included protective plastic cap when the tool is not in use. Dropping the nippers on their tips will misalign the blades and ruin the tool.

• Handle Care: While the silicone is durable, avoid exposing it to direct flames or extreme heat ($100^{\circ}C+$), as it may soften.

• Client Safety: Ensure the tool is fully sterilized between every client to prevent the spread of infection.
