Maintaining equipment
It is very important to keep measuring and
calculating equipment in good condition. You
should keep it away from damp conditions and
free from any dirt and grime that will cause it to
malfunction.
Any faults with equipment should be rectified or
reported. For example, if a measuring tape was
to get dirty it would no longer release and retract
smoothly from its casing.
