How to use

Insert a standard 11–12 mm chalk stick into the holder and secure it using the built-in clamp or retainer.

Replace the chalk by releasing the clamp, removing the spent stick and inserting a fresh refill. Use short, controlled strokes for precise marks and longer strokes for continuous lines.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use compatible 11–12 mm chalk refills and keep the tip clean and straight. Store the holder and spare chalk in a dry place to prevent chalk from softening or crumbling. When marking on rough surfaces, consider using slightly firmer chalk or applying multiple passes to achieve visible lines.
