Make sure the blade is securely locked and that the square is placed firmly against the surface you are measuring. Always check that the surface is clean from debris.
Tighten the knurled adjustment screw. If it still doesn't hold, the screw or the stock might be damaged and need repair or replacement.
Wipe the square dry after use, and store it in a dry environment. Consider applying a light coat of oil to the blade to prevent rust, especially in humid conditions.
LIFETIME for all hand tools; 3 YEAR for power tools, air & petrol tools.
While the SL31 is accurate, it may not be suitable for the most demanding precision tasks. For extremely fine work, you might consider a specialized tool.
Check if the square is on a level surface. If the problem persists, the spirit level may be damaged. Contact the manufacturer for a replacement or repair if under warranty.
Ensure the blade is securely locked in the stock. Check for any damage or debris that might be interfering with the measurements. Recalibrate if needed.
No specific setup is required; the square is ready to use upon arrival.
*Compatibility*: The SL31 works with standard measuring practices. Ensure you are using it on a flat, stable surface for accurate measurements.
*Care Instructions*: After use, wipe the blade and stock clean with a soft cloth to remove any debris. Store the combination square in a dry place to prevent rust. Avoid dropping or subjecting it to extreme force, as this can affect its accuracy. Check the spirit level periodically to ensure it is correctly aligned. The warranty for hand tools is LIFETIME, so if your tool is defective, contact the manufacturer to claim the warranty.
