Troubleshooting

LED flashlight not working

Ensure the pen tip is exposed and free of debris. Try gently rolling the ball on a clean piece of paper. If the issue persists, the ink cartridge may need replacement.

Multi-tool components are stiff or stuck

Gently clean around the moving parts with a dry brush. If necessary, apply a small amount of light lubricant (e.g., graphite powder) and work the component back and forth.
