Hi all

Don't know if it's me being thick :| or what? but today I received the suction cup and tried it out on a filing cabinet at work and it works perfectly... really strong grip!

Only problem is .... how do I get it back off? :thinking:

Looks the same as the 241 cups I've got. There's a half-circle 'lip' on the back of the mount, with your thumb around pin, use your forefinger under this lip and pull up to release the vacuum pressure.

:agree:

I do not have those cups, but there is a raised section on the side of the rubber foot, a little tug on that away from what it is stuck to, should lift away with no issues

Many thanks for the replies :thumbs: I tried that for ages and it just wouldn't budge :shrug: but for some reason it's working now..... :thinking:

Thanks again
