SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

• Read the instruction manual carefully and completely before using the appliance and keep them for later use.
• During use, considerable heat may be experienced on the skin.
• During treatment, check the results regularly. This applies particularly in the case of diabetics, since they are less sensitive to pain and more susceptible to injury. The three attachments supplied with the base unit MC60 are basically suitable for diabetics.

Nevertheless, do not use high speed and work particularly carefully. Ask your doctor in case of doubt and when using other attachments in the upgrade set.

• This instrument must be used only for the purpose for which it has been developed, and in the manner described in the instructions for use. Any improper use can be dangerous.

• In case of prolonged intensive use (e.g. milling of dead skin from your feet) the device might get very hot. In order to prevent skin burns in these situations, there should be longer breaks between each application. For your own safety, constantly monitor heat build up in the device. This particularly applies to people who are insensitive to heat.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

Information concerning the instrument

This manicure and pedicure instrument is equipped with high-quality attachments. The basic version includes three attachments with long-life sapphire coating or polishing felt. This, together with the smooth speed control and clockwise/anticlockwise running, allows professional foot and nail care such as is otherwise possible only from a chiropodist.

Individual treatments can be provided and the highest demands met with a Profiset with an additional six attachments in extremely high quality long-life versions. This upgrade set an be integrated without problem in the MC 60 instrument case.

You have the best equipment with the MC 60 instrument and the MCA 60 professional set attachments. This can otherwise be offered only by a professional chiropodist.

General

• This instrument is intended only for the treatment of hands (manicure) and feet (pedicure).
• Select an attachment and push it onto the instrument spindle using a slight pressure. The attachments can be heard to engage. To remove: pull the attachment and instrument apart in the axial direction (straight).
• Switch on the instrument by sliding the slide switch to the left (anticlockwise running) or to the right (clockwise running). The two buttons marked with plus (+) and minus (-) allow you to select the speed of rotation. Start every application at low speed and increase it only as required.
• All file and cutting attachments are coated with a sapphire grain. This guarantees extremely long life and almost guarantees freedom from wear.
• Do not exert heavy pressure and always guide the attachments carefully over the surface to be treated.
• Move the instrument under light pressure in circular movements slowly over the parts to be treated.
• Note that the cutting attachments will have a reduced effect if the skin is softened or moist. For this reason, do not carry out any pretreatment in a bath.
• Do not remove all the callus skin in order to retain the natural protection of the skin.
• Always ensure that the spindle can rotate freely. It must never be

permanently jammed, otherwise the instrument will become too hot and suffer damage.

• After every use, apply moisturizing cream to the parts treated.

Important: Check the results during treatment. This is particularly important for diabetics, since theirs hands and feet are less sensitive.

Attachments

The following three attachments are included in the basic equipment:

A - Sapphire cone

Removal of dry skin or calluses from the soles of the feet and from the heels and for manicuring the nails.

B - Felt cone

Smoothing and polishing the edge of the nail after filling as well as for cleaning the nail surface. Always polish in circular movements and do not allow the felt cone to rest in one place, otherwise friction could cause heat to develop.

C - Sapphire disk, fine

Filling and treatment of the nails, fine grained sapphire disk. The specific aspect of this sapphire disk is that only the inner disk rotates, while the outer support is stationary. This

enables precise filing of the nails without the risk of burning the skin with the fast rotating disk.

With the upgrade Profiset you have six additional attachments available: Since these involve Profi attachments, we would ask you to proceed with caution when using the additional attachments, since incorrect use could lead to injury. Exercise particular caution at higher speeds.

D - Cylindrical milling cutter

Grinding of lignified foot nail surfaces as well as smoothing of these. For this purpose, apply the milling cutter horizontally to the nail surface and remove the unwanted layer of nail using slow circular movements.

E - Flame milling cutter

For removing ingrown nails. Carefully guide the flame cutter up to the part to be treated and remove parts of the nail as neccessary.

F - Sapphire milling cutter, round

This accessory attachment is for careful removal of corns. when using this attachment, please remember when removing the layer of skin from the corn that you will quickly penetrate deeper into the skin and this could

injure the periosteum.

G - Needle milling cutter

The needle milling cutter is a precision tool. Please proceed cautiously when using this attachment, since careless use can quickly cause injury. It can be used to free ingrown nails and cut away dead nail parts. Use the needle milling cutter at low speed.

H – Sapphire cone, long and coarse

Fast removal of thick or large calluses on the soles and heels. This attachment is intended for large areas.

I - Sapphire disk, coarse

Filing and treatment of the nails, coarse grain sapphire disk. This attachment allows you to shorten even thick nails by filing. Since it quickly removes large areas of the nail, you should proceed with caution in this case also.

When filing, always work from the outside of the nail towards the tip! Always check results regularly during treatment. As soon as the application becomes unpleasant, stop the treatment.

CLEANING & CARE

Before cleaning the power unit, always unplug it from the socket outlet!

• Clean the instrument with a slightly moistened cloth. You can also moisten the cloth with mild soap suds to remove more stubborn dirt.
• If necessary, for reasons of hygiene, the attachments can be cleaned with a cloth or brush moistened with alcohol. Dry them carefully afterwards.

• Make sure that no water enters the instrument. But if this should happen, do not use the instrument again until it is completely dry.
