Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The tape requires no initial setup. Simply extend the blade by pulling it out and engage the brake if necessary. To retract, operate the winding handle. Ensure the handle is securely attached before use.
Compatibility: This tape is a standalone measuring tool and is compatible with all standard construction and DIY practices. The dual markings make it compatible with both metric and imperial measuring systems.
Care:
- Cleaning: After each use, wipe the fibreglass blade with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Avoid using harsh solvents.
- Storage: Store the tape in a dry environment. Ensure the blade is fully retracted and the protective frame is clean before storing to prevent damage.
- Inspection: Periodically inspect the blade for nicks or tears and the frame for cracks. Check that the winding mechanism operates smoothly.
