Enail Installation
Step 1 — Attach the Nail to Your Rig
Insert the Nail (Titanium, Quartz Hybrid, or SiC) into the joint of your rig. Choose the correct adapter for your joint size (Male/Female, 10mm/14mm/18mm). Place the Heat Shield for protection.
Step 2 — Connect the Heater Coil
Wrap the Heater Coil snugly around the Nail. Plug the coil cable into the port on the back of the Controller Box. Ensure a secure, tight connection.
Step 3 — Power On
Plug the AC Power cable into a wall outlet and flip the switch on the Controller Box. The PID display will show the current temperature rising to the set point. Heat-up takes approximately 2-3 minutes.

Setting Temperature with the PID Controller
Use the Up/Down buttons on the Controller to adjust temperature within the 65-1000 F range. Wait 5 seconds to confirm the value. The PID Controller maintains a steady temperature throughout the entire session.
Recommended Temperature Zones
| Zone | Temperature (F) | Characteristics |
|---|---|---|
| Flavor Zone | 500-550 F | Terpene-rich, aromatic, light vapor. Best for flavor chasers. |
| Balanced Zone | 600-650 F | Good balance of flavor and cloud density. Recommended for most users. |
| Cloud Zone | 700 F+ | Maximum vapor density and extraction. Terpenes burn off, reduced flavor. |

Dabbing Technique
1. Use the Dabber Tool to scoop a small amount of concentrate (rice-grain size).
2. Touch it onto the heated nail surface.
3. Cap immediately with the Carb Cap to control airflow and lower the boiling point.
4. Draw slowly and steadily through the rig.
5. Swab the nail with a Q-tip immediately after your draw (Q-Tip Tech).
Q-Tip Tech
The most important maintenance technique for enail users: after every dab, swab the nail with a cotton Q-tip while still warm (but not scorching hot). This removes leftover concentrate residue and dramatically extends nail life while keeping flavor clean.
Cold Start Dab
An alternative technique: place concentrate on the nail before heating, then turn on the controller. This produces excellent flavor and makes cleanup easier.

Cleaning and Maintenance
Nail
- Q-tip swab after every dab.
- Deep clean: soak in Isopropyl Alcohol (90%+) for 30 minutes, rinse with warm water.
- Quartz: Heat Clean at 700 F+ to burn off stubborn residue.
Glass Rig
- Drain water after each session.
- Soak in ISO + coarse salt, shake gently, rinse with clean water.
Controller Box and Coil

- Never submerge in water or ISO.
