User Manual

Trim-Tex now has 3 Miter Marking Tools. All the tools can be used for marking 90º and 135º off
angle corners. The 350 Miter Marker (#0922) works with all 350 Bull products. The ¾" R. Miter
Marker (#0932) works with ¾" R. Bullnose Corners, Bullnose Super & Giant L Beads & Bullnose Fast
Caps. The Chamfer Marker (#0943) works with Chamfer Bead and Chamfer Stop. The directions for all
three are listed below as all products function identically.
Everyone measures marks & cuts differently so you may need to practice on a few
pieces first.
All Miter Markers come with alignment edges
that are marked with an arrow to allow you to mark the bead to fit any opening. To properly use the Miter
Marker you will need a sharp pencil and tin snips. You will also need a small T square for Bullnose L
Beads & Fast Caps.
