Using the Klein Tools 5707 Tape Measure Holder is a breeze. First, just attach it to your belt through the tunnel - style belt connection. It can handle belts up to 2.25 inches wide. Then, simply clip your tape measure into the holder. It's designed to fit most tape measures with belt clips. When it comes to maintenance, you don't have to do much. Since it's made of Cordura nylon, it's quite tough. But if it gets dirty, you can gently wipe it with a damp cloth. As for the rust - resistant metal clip, it should stay in good shape for a long time. Just make sure not to expose it to extremely harsh chemicals. Also, while it's lightweight and comfortable in all sorts of climates, avoid leaving it in direct sunlight for long periods as this could potentially affect the nylon material over time.
