You have bought an electric nail file which is new or which you have used long time comfortable, but aren’t sure about how to maintain it. Here are some tips to help your new machine achieve a long, healthy life.

1. Cleanse the electric file regularly with a soft cloth or brush to remove any dust and debris that can settle in cracks and crevices. Make sure to unplug the machine before cleaning it.

2. Hold the electric file’s cord properly at a natural angle. Try to avoid constantly bending it, as the cord will become loose from the power supply or the handpiece.

3. Make sure the nail drill bits are centered properly. If not, the electric file stem will wobble and loosen and damage the handpiece.

4. Don’t apply lubricant anywhere on the main machine. Most electric files feature bearings inside the handpiece that are self lubricating. Adding more oil will actually damage the bearings, not to mention heat them up, causing friction and heating the entire machine.

5. Don’t place the handpiece in disinfectant. You don’t want to cause interior damage to it. And make sure you don’t switch your electric file to the reverse option while it’s in forward motion.
