Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup for these tools is straightforward as they require no calibration before initial use. To maintain the accuracy of your squares, keep the blades clean and free of sawdust buildup. If you are working in environments with high humidity, consider applying a light coat of machine oil to the steel blades to prevent oxidation. For the hardwood handles, a periodic light sanding or application of wood wax can keep the material from drying out over time. Always store the tools in a dry area or on a pegboard to prevent the steel blades from being bent or damaged by heavier shop tools.
