		Simply follow the steps below for a quick and easy guide on how to use your surform shaver.

		Step 1 – Grip handle Grip the handle of the surform shaver, making sure it is in a comfortable position.

		A surform shaver can be used in either the left or right hand.

		Step 2 – Start shaping Place the blade on the area to be shaved. A surform shaver is designed to be used on the pull stroke, differing from the way other surforms usually work. Begin shaping the surface by pulling the tool towards you.

		The holes in the blade will grate the surface area, removing thin strips of material with every stroke. Repeat this step until the workpiece is the desired shape.

		Step 3 – Clean blade The blade of your surform shaver may become clogged with waste material. If this happens, lightly clean the blade with a fine wire brush to remove any debris that has built up in the perforated holes.
