Installation Notes

Blade replacement on tape measure reels should be performed by a qualified technician familiar with the housing disassembly procedure for the specific reel model. Fully retract and secure the existing blade before beginning disassembly to prevent snap-back injury. Verify the replacement blade style matches the housing specification before winding. Follow the tool manufacturer's reassembly sequence to ensure proper spring tension and retraction function.
