Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Stanley Adjustable Quick Square requires no initial setup beyond ensuring the adjustable arm moves freely. To adjust an angle, loosen the locking mechanism (if present on the specific model), position the arm to the desired angle using the engraved scale or a protractor, and then retighten the mechanism firmly. Ensure the base of the square is flush against your material for accurate marking.
Compatibility: This tool is compatible with a wide range of woodworking and construction materials, including wood, plastic, and soft metals. Its primary function is marking and layout.
Care: To maintain performance, periodically clean the square with a dry or slightly damp cloth to remove dust and debris. Ensure the adjustable arm mechanism remains free of sawdust and grit; a light application of a dry lubricant can help if it becomes stiff. Store the square in a dry place to prevent corrosion.
