Choose the Correct Fit
Choose the rule type and scale that match the drawing. Fully open the sections needed for the measurement and ensure the joints are seated before reading the scale.
Reference angle markings help with common conduit bend angles. Treat them as layout aids and verify the actual setup rather than assuming the rule is a bending tool.
Installation & Care
Keep the joint areas clear of dirt and fold the sections without twisting them sideways. Wipe the laminated blades clean and dry before storage.
Inspect for damaged joints, worn markings or bent sections before use. A joint that does not seat correctly can change a measurement even when the scale is readable.
