FAQs
What is the maximum weight the SC-02 can support?
The mount supports a maximum payload of 3kg.
Can I use this on a matte-painted surface?
No, the suction cup requires a smooth, non-porous surface to function correctly; matte or textured surfaces will prevent a vacuum seal.
How do I know if the suction is losing pressure?
Monitor the clear safety indicator; if the red warning line appears, the mount needs to be pumped again immediately.
Is a safety tether included in the package?
No, a secondary safety tether is not included and must be purchased separately.
Can this be used on curved surfaces?
The SC-02 is designed specifically for flat, non-porous surfaces. It will not work on highly curved or irregular surfaces.
What should I do if I notice the seal weakening during a long drive?
Pull over safely, inspect the surface for debris, re-clean if necessary, and re-pump the vacuum until the safety indicator confirms a secure hold.
Troubleshooting
The safety indicator line remains visible.
Clean the surface and the rubber cup thoroughly, then pump the vacuum button again until the line disappears.
The mount loses suction shortly after application.
Ensure the surface is not porous or textured, as the vacuum seal requires a perfectly smooth interface to hold pressure.
Camera angle slips during transit.
Verify that all adjustment knobs on the quick-release arm are tightened securely before driving.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the mount, ensure the target surface is thoroughly cleaned with a microfiber cloth and is free of wax, grease, or dirt. Place the cup on the surface, press the vacuum button repeatedly until the red warning line is hidden, and confirm a solid attachment. The mount is compatible with standard 1/4" screw interfaces used by most modern cameras. For care, keep the rubber suction pad clean and store it with the protective cover to maintain surface elasticity. Always remove the mount when the vehicle is stationary for long periods to preserve the rubber seal and avoid leaving marks on paintwork.
