Maped Study Stop Universal Holder Compass - Assorted Colours

The exclusive stop system allows you to lock the compass legs in place. This is crucial for maintaining a precise radius, ensuring consistent measurements and accurate drawings, especially when drawing multiple identical circles or arcs.

No, the compass is available in a random color selection only. The color cannot be specified or requested.

The universal holder is designed to accommodate standard drawing tools like pencils, pens, or chalk. Ensure your tool fits securely within the holder.

Wipe the compass with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals. Store it in its protective box to prevent damage and keep it clean.

The metal legs are a benefit, offering optimal weight and balance for stability and control during drawing. They contribute to the compass's durability and precision.

While designed with students in mind, its precision features, like the stop system and metal construction, make it suitable for anyone requiring accurate geometric drawings, including hobbyists and professionals for certain tasks.

Product-specific warranty information is typically found on the manufacturer's website or the product packaging. Please refer to those resources for details.

Ensure the hinge screws are sufficiently tightened. If the issue persists, the locking mechanism of the stop system may need adjustment or cleaning.

Tighten the screw on the universal holder securely around the drawing tool. Ensure the drawing tool is not excessively thin or thick for the holder.

Check that the compass point is firmly seated on the paper. Ensure the legs are properly balanced and the drawing tool is held at a consistent angle. Clean any dust from the legs and pivot point.

Verify that you are using the specific locking feature of the stop system, not just tightening the hinge screws. Ensure the mechanism is clean and free of debris that might prevent it from engaging.
