OPERATION

To Attach
1) Clean the contact surface and,
if needed, the face of the
rubber pad (see Cleaning).
Caution: Some rubber
compounds may stain light surfaces or deform
soft coatings. When in doubt, test a sample of
such materials for permanent effects.
2) Position the vacuum cup so the red line will be
visible if it should appear while the cup is attached.
3) Press the rubber pad against the contact
surface as needed to form a continuous seal.
Caution: Make sure the surface material is
supported as needed to prevent breakage.
4) Pump the plunger until the cup attaches completely.
The red line serves as a vacuum indicator: When
the red line is hidden, the cup is ready for use.
5) Check the plunger frequently to make sure
the cup remains securely attached. If the red
line appears, pump the plunger until the red line
is hidden again (see WARNINGS).
To Release
1) Secure the load.
2) Pull a release tab until the cup disengages completely.
Caution: Remove the cup when not in use.

Elevation: up to 5,000' (1,524 m).
RUBBER
Note: Maximum Load Capacity includes a 3:1 design factor and requires:
PAD
Attachment on clean, dry, relatively smooth, flat, nonporous surfaces
RED LINE
Minimum vacuum level of 17-1/2" Hg (-59 kPa)
Friction coefficient of 1

If the cup remains attached to a hot surface (eg, in direct sunlight) for an extended time, the rubber pad could bond
1
with the surface, resulting in damage to the surface or to the pad when it is removed.
2
Moisture or contaminants can reduce the slip resistance of the rubber pad.
The Maximum Load Capacity is based on lifting under controlled conditions with new vacuum cups attached to horizontal
3
load surfaces (except RH cups, which are attached to a vertical surface). Many factors can reduce the capacity, such as:
mounting or lifting a load when the cup is attached to a vertical or inclined surface
dynamic loading (eg, mounting loads on moving vehicles)
mounting or lifting a load that applies leverage to the cup (see www.wpg.com/mccc to calculate capacities for specific
loads on Mounting Cups)
Contact an authorized dealer or WPG for more information.
Caution: The user must be able to monitor the red line and repump the plunger whenever these cups are in use. If not, a
4
secondary restraint may be needed to protect mounted equipment.

MAINTENANCE

Service
Inspect the vacuum cup regularly for damage or a
missing air filter. Correct any faults before using the
cup (see TROUBLESHOOTING). Note: Replace the
rubber pad at least once every 2 years or whenever
damage is discovered.
If the hand cup does not function normally, first
clean the rubber pad according to the directions to
follow. If the condition persists,
see TROUBLESHOOTING.
Cleaning
1) Remove the air filter from
the rubber pad.
2) Use a clean sponge or lint-free
cloth to apply soapy water or another mild
cleanser to the pad face (see WARNINGS).
Caution: To prevent liquid from contaminating
the pump, hold the cup face-down or cover the
suction hole in the filter recess.
3) Wipe all residue from the pad face.
4) Allow the pad to dry and reinstall the air filter.
Storage
Store the cup in a clean, dry location out of direct
sunlight. Use the cover (when supplied) or another
appropriate means to protect the pad face from
damage.

WARNINGS

Failure to observe WARNINGS could damage the
hand cup or the load, or cause injury to the user.
Do not use the cup to support loads that exceed
the Maximum Load Capacity (see SPECIFICATIONS).
Do not use the cup to support a person.
Do not leave a cup unattended which could
injure people if it disengages unexpectedly.
Do not place the rubber pad against surfaces
which could damage a sealing edge.
Avoid conditions that could cause the cup to
slip or to disengage prematurely, such as:
contaminants, cuts or scratches in the pad face
or contact surface; attaching the cup to porous
materials; or applying pressure against the pad
edge.
Do not use the cup when the red line is visible.
If the red line reappears frequently, discontinue
use and see Service.
Do not allow anything to interfere with free
movement of the plunger while the cup is
attached.
Do not touch any release tab while using the cup.
Do not use harsh chemicals (such as solvents or
gasoline) or rubber cleaners and conditioners to
clean the pad.
