Directions For Use
- To demat your pet, first start by adjusting the dematting cutting edges to the desired position appropriate for your pet’s hair length by pressing the FURextender button, and then locking into place with the easy-slide tab.
- Move the mat breaker through fur mats following the grain of the hair, using brisk, firm strokes for best results. Continue until mats are broken up. Smaller mats will fall out on their own, or become small enough to remove with regular brushing.
Usage Instructions

The Dematter tool can prevent mats from becoming worse and remove them completely.FAQs
What hair types does the Adjustable Dematter Tool work on?The tool works with most hair types, long or short, thick or fine, and for most animal types. Regardless of hair type, always use on a dry pet so mats are loose.
What is the best method for removing mats?
Patiently tackling mats slowly and deliberately works well. Large mats that have been neglected for a long period may take some time to remove.
After dematting, how do I avoid future pet hair mats?
Grooming your dog daily with a brush or rake can go a long way to preventing the formation of mats. Once mats have been removed from dematting, it is easier to stay on top of detangling with regular brushing. FURminator detangling spray can make it easier to brush or comb out tangles.
