Setup

1. Unpacking: Carefully remove the ink box from its packaging. Inspect for any signs of damage.
2. Initial Inspection: Open the ink box lid. The ink pad should be securely seated within the box.
3. Refilling (Optional): The HAND No.2 Square Ink Box comes with an ink pad that can be refilled. If the pad appears dry or you wish to use a specific ink color, apply a small amount of ink evenly across the pad surface. Allow the ink to soak in completely before use. Do not overfill.

Operating Instructions

Using the HAND No.2 Square Ink Box is straightforward:

1. Open the Lid: Gently lift the lid of the ink box to expose the ink pad.
2. Apply Stamp: Press your stamp firmly and evenly onto the ink pad. Ensure the entire surface of the stamp that you wish to ink makes contact with the pad.
3. Stamp Surface: Press the inked stamp onto your desired surface (e.g., paper, fabric). Apply even pressure for a clear impression.
4. Close Lid: After use, securely close the lid of the ink box to prevent the ink pad from drying out.

Maintenance

• Storage: Always store the ink box with the lid securely closed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. This prevents the ink pad from drying prematurely.
• Refilling: When the ink pad starts to produce faint impressions, it's time to refill. Use a compatible ink type for best results. Apply ink sparingly and evenly.
• Cleaning: The plastic casing can be wiped clean with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals that may damage the plastic or affect the ink pad. Do not attempt to wash the ink pad itself.

Troubleshooting

Problem: Ink pad appears dry or produces faint impressions.

Solution: The ink pad likely needs refilling. Apply a small amount of compatible ink evenly over the pad surface. Ensure the lid is closed tightly after each use to prevent drying.

Problem: Stamp impressions are uneven or blurry.

Solution: Ensure you are pressing the stamp firmly and evenly onto both the ink pad and the stamping surface. Check if the ink pad has enough ink and is evenly distributed. Clean your stamp if there is any residue affecting the impression.
