How to use

Set the required date by rotating the rubber date bands until the desired day, month and year align in the viewing window. Press the stamp onto the ink pad if the impression is faint, or replace the pad following the manufacturer’s instructions. Position the stamp over the document, apply steady downward pressure, and lift straight up to avoid smudging. Clean the date bands periodically to remove dust or dried ink for consistent results.

Usage recommendations

Store the stamp horizontally when not in use and replace the ink pad when impressions become weak. For best results on thin or glossy paper, test on a scrap sheet and adjust pressure. Avoid exposing the stamp to extreme temperatures or solvents that could damage the rubber bands or housing.
