How to use

Extend the steel blade from the housing to the required length and engage the lock to hold the tape in position. Align the tape’s end hook with the starting point of the measurement and read the metric graduation at the point of interest.

Clean debris from the blade after use and store the tape in a dry place to maintain the protective coating and readability of the graduations.

Recommendations

For accurate results, ensure the end hook is properly seated against the object being measured and keep the blade straight without sagging when measuring across distances. Avoid striking the blade against hard surfaces and retract it under control to prolong the life of the tape.
