Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your Marksman Plastering Hawk, simply screw the detachable handle into the underside of the aluminum board until it is firm and wobble-free. Ensure the base of the handle is flush against the underside to maintain stability.
Care instructions are vital for longevity:
- Immediate Cleaning: Always rinse the hawk with water immediately after finishing a project. Plaster and cement can harden rapidly, becoming difficult to remove once cured.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Use a plastic scraper to remove excess material rather than metal tools, which could gouge the aluminum surface.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. If you are storing the hawk for a long period, unscrew the handle to prevent potential cross-threading or mechanical strain during storage.
