3. OPERATION
WARNING! Ensure that you read, understand and apply Section 1 safety instructions.
the suction cup is designed to work best on float glass at a room temperature of 20ºc. cold temperatures, humidity and
other surface contamination may reduce the holding capacity of the tool. the tool may not be as effective on other sheet
materials such as plastic and metal. Moisture and other contaminants will also reduce the slip resistance of the cup.
WARNING! This is a hand tool and must not be used in conjunction with a crane or any other lifting device.
3.1 ensure that the workpiece to be moved is clean, dry and free from oil and grease.
3.2 remove the protective cover from the suction cup.
3.3 Holding the handle, firmly push the suction cup onto the material and hold it there under pressure.
3.4 With your other hand, pump the plunger until it recedes into the barrel and the red line disappears from view. the suction cup
should now be firmly attached and ready for use.
3.5 Always keep the plunger in view during moving/lifting. should the plunger begin to rise and the red line reappears, this
indicates a loss of suction and you should immediately put down the load.
3.6 check that the suction cup and surface of the material are clean and free from any foreign bodies or imperfections.
When satisfied, reattach the suction cup as previously described.
NOTE: the suction cup is designed for lifting, carrying and holding objects for a short period of time only. If circumstances cause
an object to be held for longer than expected, the grip must be checked frequently with reference to the plunger position and
the visibility of the red line.
3.7 only release the suction cup when the load has been set down. to release the suction cup from the surface to which it is
attached, lift the release tag at the side of the cup. DO NOT use any sharp object to loosen the suction cup as it may
damage the rubber and prevent the tool creating suction.
3.8 refit the protective cover onto the suction cup and store it in a clean, dry, childproof location.
