4. Grooving:
   • Hold the grooving iron firmly by the handle.
   • Gently press the heated blade against the tire surface where you wish to create or deepen a groove.
   • Apply steady, even pressure and guide the tool along the desired path. The tool can engrave patterns with a width of 3-20mm and a depth of 7-16mm.
   • Avoid excessive force, as this can damage the blade or the tire.
   • Work slowly and methodically for best results.
