Troubleshooting
Lead not advancing
Ensure the tip section is fully screwed on. Check if there is a broken piece of lead lodged inside the mechanism. Try to clear any obstructions carefully.
Lead breaks easily
This can be due to excessive writing pressure. Try applying lighter pressure. Ensure you are using quality 0.7mm lead.
