Setup
The PILOT P-700 pens are ready for immediate use upon removal from packaging. No assembly or complex setup is required.
- Unpack: Carefully remove the pens from their packaging.
- Remove Cap: Pull off the protective cap from the pen tip.
- Begin Writing: The pen is now ready for use.
Note: A small wax bead or protective tip may be present on the very fine point of some new pens. This will come off with the first few strokes of writing.
Operating Instructions
Using your PILOT P-700 pen is straightforward:
- Grip: Hold the pen comfortably, utilizing the ribbed grip for stability and control.
- Writing Angle: The needle point allows for a wide range of writing angles, but a slight angle (not completely perpendicular) often provides the smoothest ink flow.
- Pressure: Apply light to moderate pressure. The smooth gel ink requires minimal force for clear, consistent lines.
- Recap After Use: Always replace the cap firmly after each use to prevent the ink from drying out and to protect the pen tip.
Maintenance
Proper care will extend the life and performance of your PILOT P-700 pens:
- Store Properly: Store pens horizontally or tip-down when not in use to ensure consistent ink flow. Avoid storing them tip-up for extended periods.
- Keep Capped: Always recap the pen when not writing. Gel ink can dry out if exposed to air for too long.
- Avoid Extreme Temperatures: Do not expose pens to direct sunlight, high heat, or freezing temperatures, as this can affect ink viscosity and performance.
- Clean Tip (If Necessary): If the pen tip accumulates dust or dried ink, gently wipe it with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals.
