Keep your hands flat and parallel to the machine’s surface, approximately 5mm from the air aperture, drawing your hands through the airflow from your wrists to your fingertips.Move your hands slowly through the airflow, keeping a consistent speed (approx. 2.5 seconds per side), alternating between front and back each time.
Keep your hands flat, close the gaps between your fingers and keep your thumbs tucked in, so the whole of your hand is drawn through the airflow.
