Multi Scrapper fascia blade user manual
Before you begin
- Upon unpacking, check that the knife is intact and there is no damage to the metal edge.
- Charge it fully before the first use.
- The knife has three working edges, each for a different purpose (see below). Take a look at them before you start.
- Clean your skin beforehand and apply a thin layer of massage oil or cream. Only enough for the knife to glide comfortably. It does not work through clothing.
- Wipe any oil or dust remaining from previous use off the knife.
Step by step
- Switching on. Hold down the button for about 1.5 seconds. The knife starts at 40 °C and heats up in about 20–30 seconds.
- Temperature. By pressing the button briefly, you can step to 45 °C and then to 50 °C. The display shows the level with 1–3 vertical bars, next to which the battery charge level is visible.
- Heat test. Before placing it on the treated area, gently touch the metal part to your skin to see if the heat is pleasant.
- Holding. When starting, hold the knife at about a 45-degree angle to the skin, not perpendicularly.
- Movement. Pull slowly in a straight line from one point to another, always in the same direction. Work on one area in one direction for about 15–30 seconds, then move on.
- Continuous movement. Never leave the hot edge in one place on the skin, as it may burn. Do not press hard, and do not press on bony areas.
- Switching off. Hold down the button for about 1.5 seconds. Wait a few seconds for the metal edge to cool down before putting it away.
Settings and tips
| Edge | Purpose | Tip |
|---|---|---|
| Concave, heated long edge | large areas, larger muscle groups | by tilting it, you can reach almost all major muscle groups |
| Convex, thumb-shaped tip | smaller muscles where you would massage with your thumb, for example around the ankle | smoother than the other tip |
| Sharp metal tip | precise work on small, stiff areas, for example between the toes | held at a 90-degree angle |
- The edges do not cut: they are rounded; they pull the skin but do not break it.
- For home use, always start at the lowest, 40 °C level.
- At the 50 °C level, pay special attention to keeping the knife in constant motion.
- You can also use it without heating: in this case, do not turn it on.
- The sensor built into the handle provides a subtle vibration. This is an auxiliary function; the main work is done by the scraping motion.
- If the skin becomes too red or sensitive, stop and do not treat that area again for at least 72 hours.
- If you hand it over to someone else during use, turn it off first so the hot edge does not cause discomfort.
Cleaning, charging and storage
Charging
- Use the included USB-C cable and a 5 V / 2 A adapter to charge. The port must be dry and clean.
- A full charge takes about 4 hours, and it lasts for about 2 hours on a single charge. Do not charge for more than 8 hours and unplug it after charging.
- The knife cannot be used while charging. If the charge is low, the knife will beep until it turns itself off.
- Do not let it fully discharge; instead, charge it regularly.
Cleaning
- Wipe oil and cream off the switched-off, cooled-down knife with a damp or disinfectant wipe, then wipe dry.
- Do not submerge in water or pour liquid on it.
Storage
- Store in a dry place, away from sunlight, heat, and water, and out of the reach of children.
- Do not expose to temperatures above 40 °C or below −5 °C, and do not use at humidity levels above 80%.
- Do not drop or hit it. Do not use near strong electromagnetic fields.
When not to use
Do not use if:
- the area has an open wound, unhealed stitches, unhealed fracture, infection, or bruising,
- you have thrombosis or a tumor in the area,
- you have a pacemaker or an implanted defibrillator,
- you are taking anticoagulants, or have a blood clotting disorder or hemophilia,
- the treatment is uncomfortable or your skin is hypersensitive.
Ask your doctor first if:
- you are pregnant or have had surgery within 6 weeks,
- there are varicose veins, burn scars, or acute inflammation in the area,
- you have allergies, an infectious disease, kidney disease, or a fever above 38 °C,
- you are being treated for arthritis.
Never use it near the heart, on bone, or by pressing over internal organs. Avoid wounds and scars. If you feel unwell during or after use, stop immediately.
Troubleshooting
| What you see | What to do |
|---|---|
| Does not turn on | Hold the button down for at least 1.5 seconds. If it still doesn't start, charge it for 2 hours and try again. |
| Does not charge | Try another socket, reinsert the cable, check if it is damaged. Clean the port. If necessary, change the adapter or cable. |
| Heats weakly or not at all | Check if there is any dirt on the metal edge. Switch it off and on using the button. |
| Beeps, then turns off | The battery is low. Charge it. |
