Troubleshooting
Pointer surface is dirty or marked with ink
Wipe the surface with a soft damp cloth. For persistent dry-erase ink stains, use a mild non-abrasive cleaner.
Metal hanger becomes loose
Ensure the hanger is fully seated at the base; if it feels loose, it can be gently realigned or secured using a small amount of non-permanent adhesive.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These pointers require no assembly and are compatible with all standard whiteboard surfaces, interactive whiteboards, and paper chart pads. To care for your pointers, wipe the plastic surfaces with a damp cloth if they become dusty or marked with whiteboard ink. To ensure longevity, use the metal hanger to store the pointers in a dedicated classroom area rather than leaving them loose on desks where they may be stepped on or bent. They are compatible with both magnetic and non-magnetic boards.
