Installation
Installation Tips:
The SeaSucker board carrier is quick and easy to mount. To install the carrier, make sure the mounting surface is clean and place it on your roof, trunk, or window glass then press the pumps several times until the orange bands disappear. Depending on the surface they’re mounted to and the load being put on them, suction in the cups will decrease over time. Make sure to check the plungers before you get into your vehicle. When you see the orange indicator bands show simply re-pump the plungers.
To break the seal on each cup and remove the carrier from your vehicle, simply pull the T-shaped tabs up and towards the center of the cups – it’s that easy. Remove the front and rear carriers and store them in your trunk or garage, or put them in a suitcase to take with you.
The Do’s & Don’ts of your SeaSucker Rack
Always…
Never…
So how does the SeaSucker vacuum mount work?
A SeaSucker vacuum mount relies on two important components to create its powerful seal: the vacuum pad and the vacuum pump.
The vacuum pump evacuates all of the air out from underneath the vacuum pad, which forms the seal. Working together, these two pieces give the SeaSucker vacuum mount its incredible strength.
To attach, apply a little downward pressure to ensure that the entire edge of the mount is touching the surface. Then, simply press the pump repeatedly until the orange indicator band completely disappears.
To remove, lift the edge of the vacuum pad away from the surface by pulling either of the tabs on the top of the vacuum pad up and towards the center of the vacuum mount. You’re really just trying to lift the edge of the vacuum pad up off the mounting surface, which breaks the seal and lets you remove your rack.
