Operating Instructions

Using the Carpenter Pencils (2.8mm)

These pencils are ideal for marking on rough or uneven surfaces. The robust lead is suitable for wood, metal, concrete, and other construction materials. Adjust lead length as needed for desired line thickness and durability.

Using the Mechanical Pencils (2.0mm)

The 2.0mm mechanical pencils are designed for fine lines and detailed work, such as architectural drawings or precise measurements. The metal grip provides enhanced control and comfort.

Using the Long Nib Markers

The long nib markers are specifically designed for reaching into deep holes or narrow spaces where traditional pencils cannot. They are effective on various surfaces including glass, metal, plastic, tile, and wood.

Using the Carbide Scriber Tool

The carbide scriber tool is used for precise marking and engraving on hard surfaces such as metal, tile, glass, ceramic, and wood. Hold the tool firmly and apply consistent pressure to create a clear line.

Using the Automatic Center Punch

The automatic center punch is used to create a precise starting point for drilling, preventing the drill bit from wandering. Place the tip on the desired marking spot, press down firmly, and the spring-loaded mechanism will automatically strike, creating an indentation.
