FAQs

What materials can I use this combination square on?

This combination square can be used on wood, metal, and plastic. However, ensure the tool is suitable for the material and the intended application.

How do I maintain the accuracy of the square?

Regularly clean the tool and store it in a dry place. Check the tool for any damage or wear, and recalibrate if necessary.

What should I do if the locking mechanism fails?

If the locking mechanism fails, the tool may not provide accurate measurements. Inspect the locking mechanism for damage, and if it's not working, consider getting a replacement.

Is the ruler replaceable?

The ruler is an integral part of the combination square. If the ruler is damaged, the entire tool might need to be replaced.

How do I check if the square is accurate?

Use the square to measure known right angles, and compare the result with a known accurate square. Check the spirit level against a known level surface.

What is the warranty period?

Troubleshooting

Measurements are inaccurate.

Check that the ruler is securely locked in the desired position before taking measurements. Ensure the tool is placed flat against the surface being measured and that the markings are read correctly.

Spirit level shows incorrect readings.

Ensure the tool is placed on a flat, level surface to calibrate the spirit level. If the bubble is consistently off-center, the tool may require recalibration or replacement.
