FAQs
Is the compass safe for younger students?
Yes, it features a safety point to minimize the risk of injury while maintaining functionality.
Does the set include a lead refill for the compass?
The set includes two pencils; the compass is designed to hold standard pencils rather than using separate lead refills.
Are the materials used in the set BPA-free?
The eraser is specifically noted as being free from PVC, latex, and phthalates, prioritizing student safety.
Can I replace the pencils with other brands?
Yes, the compass is designed to accommodate standard-sized wooden pencils.
How do I keep the pastel finish clean?
Use a damp cloth with mild soap for light stains, but avoid abrasive sponges that could scratch the coating.
Troubleshooting

Tighten the central hinge screw using a small screwdriver or your thumbnail to increase friction.

Gently tap the sharpener to dislodge the broken lead or use a thin needle to remove the blockage.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Heilix Cool Curves set in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Compass Adjustment: Always ensure the central hinge is tightened before starting a circle; if the compass feels loose, verify the screw is adjusted to your preferred tension.
- Cleaning: Wipe the ruler and set squares with a soft, dry cloth to remove pencil graphite or eraser residue. Avoid using harsh chemical solvents that might strip the pastel finish.
- Storage: Store the items in the provided case after every use to prevent the compass point from dulling or the ruler from cracking under pressure in your bag.
- Sharpening: When the blades in the pencil sharpener feel dull, clear out any accumulated shavings to ensure smooth operation.
