Before every use, examine the drill bit to ensure it is clean, straight, undamaged, and suitable for the intended professional service.
Do not use a bent, damaged, cracked, or excessively worn drill bit.
Step 2 – Switch Off the Nail Drill
Always make sure the nail drill machine is switched off before inserting, removing, or changing drill bits.
Step 3 – Insert the 3/32" Shank
Insert the shank securely into a compatible professional e-file handpiece.
Lock the handpiece according to the nail drill machine manufacturer's operating instructions.
Step 4 – Select an Appropriate Speed
Begin at a suitable controlled speed based on the enhancement material, procedure, drill machine, and your professional e-file training.
Avoid combining unnecessarily high speed with heavy pressure.
Step 5 – Hold the Handpiece Securely
Maintain a comfortable, stable grip so you can control the bit throughout the filing procedure.
Step 6 – Position the Flame Bit
Approach the compatible artificial enhancement surface at the appropriate professional angle.
Use the section of the flame profile best suited to the area being refined.
Step 7 – Use Light Pressure
Guide the drill bit gently over the enhancement material.
Avoid pushing or forcing the bit against the surface. The rotating coarse cutting action should perform the majority of the filing work.
Step 8 – Keep the Bit Moving
Use smooth, continuous movements.
Never hold a rotating coarse drill bit in one location for an extended period because concentrated friction may create unnecessary heat.
Step 9 – Reduce Product Gradually
Remove enhancement material in controlled layers rather than attempting to remove excessive product in a single pass.
Step 10 – Check the Nail Frequently
Stop regularly to check thickness, balance, shape, and remaining enhancement material.
This helps prevent unnecessary over-filing.
Step 11 – Change to a Finer Bit if Required
Once the main product reduction or shaping is complete, switch to an appropriate Medium, Fine, or Extra Fine bit if smoother refinement or delicate finishing is required.
Step 12 – Clean After Use
After completing the service, remove the drill bit safely and clean, disinfect, or sterilize it according to its material, manufacturer recommendations, salon hygiene procedures, and applicable professional standards.
