Setup, Compatibility & Care
This scale ruler requires no setup and is ready for immediate use upon removal from its packaging. It is compatible with all standard drafting pencils, technical pens, and paper surfaces, including vellum and polyester drafting film. To ensure the longevity of your scale:
- Always store the ruler in a protective sleeve or case when not in use to protect the precision edges.
- Wipe clean with a soft, dry cloth; avoid using harsh solvents or alcohol-based cleaners, as these can dissolve the printed scale markings.
- Keep the ruler away from extreme heat sources to prevent potential warping of the polystyrene material.
- Use caution when using as a cutting guide; while durable, the polystyrene edge can be scored or damaged by utility knives.
