TL;DR

Plug symbols into the piece of Schematic Paper to make circuits. Align well with the grid. Never force. Remove symbols by gentle jiggling with the Gridwrench. Always keep symbols parallel to board, especially during removal.

Insertion

Gently insert. Not much force is being used, although it looks like it.

Removal

Gently wiggle the symbols back and forth to remove. Use a Gridwrench inserted into one of the removal holes.

Orientation

Pages must face up (says "wrong side" on it). But, you can rotate them in any direction.

All symbols must be facing up. Almost all symbols may be rotated freely. "Oriented symbols" must all be oriented in the same direction on the same page.

Power Supply

Although the USB power supply is protected in two ways, we do not recommend shorting it for a long period of time. It can heat up tremendously. It’s current limited to approximately 200mA, but it can do higher. Feel free to resolder if you're an expert.

Do not use a valuable USB port to power the page. Schematic Paper is designed for prototyping electronics, things can happen.

Always turn off the power supply before inserting or removing symbols.

Have fun!
