Usage Guide - Getting Accurate Measurements with the Pittsburgh Tape Measure:
- Hook Placement: Place the magnetic hook securely on the metal surface (gutter, drip edge, bracket) at the starting point of your measurement. Verify the hook is flat against the surface for accurate readings.
- Extend the Blade: Pull the tape measure housing away from the hook point, allowing the blade to extend smoothly. The 1-inch wide blade will stand out without curling for extended measurements.
- Lock the Blade: Once extended to the desired length, press the blade lock button to hold the tape in position. This frees both hands for marking or recording the measurement.
- Read the Measurement: Read the measurement at the edge of the surface being measured. For inside measurements, add the housing width (typically marked on the case) to the blade reading.
- Mark the Point: With the blade locked, use a pencil or marker to indicate the measured point on the material. Double-check the measurement before marking cut lines.
- Release and Retract: Release the blade lock and allow the tape to retract smoothly into the housing. Guide the blade with your hand near the housing to prevent whipping.
- Use the Wrist Strap: When working at height, loop the wrist strap around your wrist to prevent dropping the tape measure if it slips from your grip.
- Store Properly: After use, wipe any moisture or debris from the blade before retracting. Store the tape measure in a dry location to maintain the spring mechanism and blade coating.
Pro Tip: For solo measurements, use the magnetic hook to attach the tape to a metal surface, then walk to the end point while holding the housing. Lock the blade to record the measurement. This eliminates the need for a helper to hold the other end of the tape.
