FAQs
Can I use this on wood or textured tiles?
No, this tool requires a smooth, non-porous surface to create a vacuum seal. It will not work on wood, stone with texture, or matte-finish materials.
What is the maximum weight this can lift?
The GTV Suction Cup Glass Lifter is rated for a load capacity of up to 40 kg.
Does it work on vertical surfaces?
Yes, it is designed for both horizontal and vertical positioning, provided the surface is clean and non-porous.
How do I know if it's attached securely?
You will feel significant resistance when pulling back on the handle after the lever is locked. If it shifts, reseat the cup and try again.
How should I store the suction cup?
Store it in a clean environment where the rubber pad cannot be compressed or deformed. Avoid extreme heat which may damage the rubber material.
Troubleshooting
Suction fails to hold for long periods
Clean the rubber cup surface with soap and water to remove dust or grease, then verify the target surface is smooth and non-porous.
The lever is difficult to lock
Ensure the rubber cup is perfectly centered and flat against the surface; do not force the lever if there is trapped debris.
Loss of suction while moving objects
Check the rubber pad for small tears or nicks; if damaged, do not use the tool for overhead or heavy lifting.
